PORTUGUESE CHOURICO, BEANS, AND RICE

Portuguese Chourico, Beans, and Rice image

I grew up on chourico, and this dish is a Portuguese comfort food that my mom always made. I took it upon myself to replicate it with a bit more kick, but even with the changes, it reminds me of being a kid. It's such a warm and satisfying dish.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cups water
1 cup uncooked white rice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 dried chourico sausage, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch slices
¼ Spanish onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups tomato sauce
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
½ (14.5 ounce) can fava beans, rinsed and drained

Steps:

Bring the water to a boil in a pot; stir the rice into the boiling water, reduce heat to low, place cover on the pot, and allow the rice to cook until all the moisture is absorbed, about 30 minutes.
As the rice cooks, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chourico in the hot oil for 2 minutes. Add the onions and garlic to the sausage and continue cooking until the vegetables are soft and the chourico has browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir the tomato sauce into the chourico mixture. Reduce heat to low. Season with the red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper; simmer until thoroughly heated, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir the fava beans into the mixture and continue cooking just long enough for the beans to heat, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve over rice.

BLACK BEAN-CHORIZO STEW

Black Bean-Chorizo Stew image

This chili-like stew relies on spicy, fresh green chorizo for its bright, zesty flavor. It only takes half an hour to make your own green chorizo, but you can substitute any kind of fresh (uncured) store-bought sausage, as long as it's got a kick. Then add some chopped garlic, along with minced parsley and roasted poblano pepper for the green factor. Serve it over rice, or with corn or flour tortillas on the side. Here are several other dishes you can make with chorizo.

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large white onion, diced
1/2 batch (12 ounces) homemade green chorizo (see recipe), or use another spicy fresh sausage
1/4 cup chopped cilantro stems, leaves reserved for serving
7 cups cooked black beans (from 4 cans or 1 pound dried beans), drained

2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
Diced avocado, for serving
Sliced scallion, for serving
Lime wedges, for serving

Tips:

Choose high-quality chorizo: The quality of the chorizo you use will greatly impact the flavor of the dish. Look for a chorizo that is made with fresh, flavorful pork and spices.
Use a variety of beans: Black beans are a classic choice, but you can also use other types of beans, such as pinto beans, kidney beans, or cannellini beans. Using a variety of beans will add more flavor and texture to the dish.
Cook the rice properly: Rice is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to cook it properly. Follow the instructions on the package of rice you are using, or use a rice cooker.
Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chorizo and vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. If the pan is too crowded, the food will not cook evenly.
Season to taste: Once the dish is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
