ULTIMATE BLACK BEAN SOUP/STEW WITH CHORIZO AND BRAISED CHICKEN



Ultimate Black Bean Soup/Stew With Chorizo and Braised Chicken image

Entered for safe-keeping, by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt of Serious Eats. This has flavor to the max: Chorizo, Serrano peppers, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, cumin, avocado, cilantro, lime... Adapted somewhat because I like to check off as I go. More at: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/01/the-food-lab-black-bean-chicken-soup-recipe.html?ref=daily-title To use canned beans, 1) drain and rinse 2 28-oz. cans of black beans; 2) skip step 2; 3) skip Step 15, use Step 16 to reduce broth to 1 quart instead of 1 1/2 quarts; and 4) add beans in step 17, and reduce cooking time to 30 minutes (step 19).

Categories     Stew

Time 7h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 lb dried black beans (see recipe description) or 2 (28 ounce) cans black beans (see recipe description)
1 gallon water
3 tablespoons salt
kosher salt
2 lbs chicken drumsticks or 2 lbs chicken thighs
fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 ounces smoked mexican chorizo sausage or 6 ounces spanish chorizo, cut into 1/4-inch slices
8 scallions, finely sliced, whites reserved separately for the soup and greens reserved separately for use as a g
1 serrano pepper, finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
4 medium garlic cloves, minced (about 4 teaspoons)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 whole chipotle chiles in adobo, finely minced (plus 1 tablespoon sauce from can)
1 1/2 quarts low sodium chicken broth (6 cups if you've had too many margaritas IF USING DRIED BEANS, or 1 quart IF USING CANNED BEANS)
2 bay leaves
1 avocado, sliced (for serving)
fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped (for serving)
1 lime, cut into 8 wedges (for serving)
1 serrano pepper, thinly sliced (for serving)
sour cream (for serving) or mexican-style crema (for serving)

Steps:

  • ADVANCED PREP FOR BEANS:.
  • DRIED BEANS: Place black beans in a large bowl and cover with 1 gallon of water. Add 3 tablespoons salt and stir until dissolved. Cover and set aside at room temperature overnight.
  • CANNED BEANS: Drain and rinse 2 28-oz. cans of black beans.
  • PREPARE CHICKEN:.
  • The next day, season chicken with salt and pepper on all sides.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or saucepot over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Add chicken and cook without moving until well browned on 1st side, about 5 minutes.
  • Flip chicken and cook until 2nd side is browned, about 3 minutes longer.
  • Remove chicken from pot with tongs and set aside on a large plate.
  • COOK CHORIZO & PEPPERS:.
  • Add chorizo to Dutch oven/saucepot. Cook, stirring occasional, until chorizo is crisp and starting to char, about 4 minutes.
  • Add scallion whites, 1 finely chopped Serrano pepper, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add chopped chipotles and their sauce. Cook, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • (IF USING DRIED BEANS) Add 1 1/2 quarts low-sodium chicken broth and bay leaves.
  • (IF USING CANNED BEANS) Add 1 quart low-sodium chicken broth and bay leaves.
  • Drain and rinse black beans and add to pot. Nestle chicken pieces into beans. Bring to a boil, reduce to a bare simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally until beans and chicken are tender.
  • (IF USING DRIED BEANS) The cooking time should be 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • (IF USING CANNED BEANS) The cooking time should be 30 minutes.
  • Remove and discard bay leaves and skins from chicken.
  • Using a ladle, carefully transfer 2 cups of beans and chorizo with liquid to a blender. (Some blenders may require some cooling off time before blending; a Vitamix does not!) Blend on high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Stir mixture back into pot.
  • If you want a thicker soup, scoop up more beans and chorizo and blend that. To make it easier for dinner guests, you can shred the meat off the chicken and mix it into the stew; otherwise, they will need a fork and knife in addition to a soup spoon, and probably strong napkins.
  • Serve chicken and beans with scallion greens, avocado, cilantro, lime wedges, sliced Serrano peppers and sour cream at the table for garnish.

1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup pepitas, toasted and lightly salted

Steps:

  • Combine the chili powder, cumin, granulated garlic, cinnamon, salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Sprinkle evenly over the chicken thighs and set aside.
  • In a large Dutch oven (enameled cast iron preferred) over medium-high heat, add the oil. When hot, add the chicken thighs, not to crowd. Cook until nicely colored, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Repeat until all the chicken is golden brown. Remove to a plate to hold.
  • Remove all but 3 to 4 tablespoons of the fat from the pan and, over medium-high heat, add the onions, Poblano peppers and red bell peppers. Cook until the onions are just starting to caramelize, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more, stirring frequently.
  • Add the beans to the pot and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes, Green Chile Sauce and the pumpkin and combine well. Season with salt and pepper, and then return the chicken to the pot with any accumulated juices. Nestle the chicken into the sauce, cover and bring to a simmer, adjusting the heat as needed.

  • Reduce the heat to medium, sprinkle the onion mixture with the flour and stir constantly until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved liquid from the chiles, 1 cup water, the vinegar and salt and stir until the liquid is smooth and all the flour is dissolved.
  • Add the chiles and pepper and simmer for 5 to 6 minutes. Puree in a blender, or with a stick blender, and add the lime juice. Adjust to taste for salt and pepper. Refrigerate for up to 1 week. Yield: 4 1/2 cups
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the chicken stock and the Green Chile Sauce to a simmer. Hold warm.
  • In a large, enameled cast-iron Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil. When hot, add the onions and serrano chiles and saute until the onion is just starting to color, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the rice and stir to coat, Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly, to toast the rice a bit. Add the garlic, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Ladle in the chicken stock and green chile mix, about 1 cup at a time, stirring and allowing the rice to absorb the liquid. Do this 3 to 4 times, and then add the rest of the liquid. Stir, cover tightly and cook for 12 to 16 minutes, stirring twice during this time.
  • Add the lime juice and cilantro and stir to combine. Place in serving bowl and garnish with the pepitas.

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 Roma tomatoes, halved, seeds and inner flesh removed
Olive- or vegetable-oil cooking spray
2 1/2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 slices thick-cut bacon, diced
1 cup chopped onion
8 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup chopped carrots
3/4 cup chopped celery
3 cans (15.5 oz each) great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
6 cups lower-sodium fat-free chicken broth, preferably organic
2 whole cooked chicken breasts (from 2 rotisserie chickens, preferably organic), boned, skin removed, cut into 1 1/2-inch-by-1/4-inch pieces
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1 3/4 lb baby spinach

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°. In a bowl, toss tomatoes with 1 tbsp oil, thyme, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray, then arrange tomatoes cut side down. Bake until soft and skins shrivel, about 30 minutes. Heat a large pot over medium heat. Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in onion and half the minced garlic. Add carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables soften and begin to color, 7 to 8 minutes. Add beans; cook 2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Stir in broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer, uncovered, about 15 minutes. Add chicken, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper and cook until hot, 2 to 3 minutes. (The stew can be made ahead to this point and kept refrigerated overnight.) Heat 1 1/2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shallots, stirring often, until they begin to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rest of the garlic and cook 2 to 3 minutes more, until lightly browned; transfer mixture to a bowl. Heat remaining 1 tbsp oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach in handfuls, turning with tongs to cook evenly. Cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper and remove from heat. Divide stew (reheated if made ahead), then spinach, among 8 shallow bowls. Lean 2 tomato halves against spinach and spoon some shallot mixture on top. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans: Different beans have different flavors and textures, so using a variety will add depth and interest to your stew. Some good options include black beans, pinto beans, kidney beans, and cannellini beans.
  • Sauté your vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables before adding them to the stew will help them develop their flavor and caramelize slightly. This will add a richer flavor to the stew.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth is the base of the stew, so it's important to use a flavorful one. A good option is to use a combination of chicken broth and vegetable broth.
  • Season the stew well: Don't be afraid to season the stew well. A good rule of thumb is to add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper per quart of stew. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and the stew to thicken. The longer you simmer the stew, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the stew with your favorite toppings: Some good options include shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.
