Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, medium diced
1 green pepper, medium diced
1 packet (1 1/2 teaspoons) Sazón seasoning mix with saffron
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons vino seco (see Cook's Note) or sherry cooking wine
Two 15-ounce cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and large diced
6 ounces Spanish chorizo, casing removed and chorizo cut into small chunks
White rice, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, green pepper, Sazón seasoning, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few cracks of freshly ground black pepper. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot occasionally, until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly darker in color and thickened, about 1 minute. Add the vino seco to deglaze the pan, scraping any browned bits with a wooden spoon.
  • Add the garbanzo beans, potatoes, chorizo and 5 cups of water. Turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, then cover the pot and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are very soft, about 20 minutes. Once the potatoes have softened, use the back of a wooden spoon to crush some of them against the side of the pot to thicken the stew. Serve the stew over hot rice, if desired.

HERBED WHITE BEAN AND SAUSAGE STEW



Herbed White Bean and Sausage Stew image

Here's a meaty, cold-weather stew laden with white beans, sweet Italian sausage, rosemary, thyme, cumin and garlic. It is deeply flavored and complex, but quite easy to make. Pan-fry the sausages in a bit of olive oil, then sauté the vegetables with cumin and tomato paste in the drippings. Add plenty of water and the dried beans that, wait for it, you did not have to soak. Simmer until the house is fragrant and the windows fog up (about 2 hours).

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, sliced 3/4-inch thick
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 medium carrots, finely diced
2 celery stalks, finely diced
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 pound dried great Northern beans, rinsed and picked through
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
2 thyme sprigs
1 large rosemary sprig
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar, plus more for serving
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium-high. Add the sausage and brown until cooked through, about 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
  • Add the tomato paste and cumin to the pot. Cook, stirring, until dark golden, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the beans, 8 cups water, salt, thyme, rosemary and bay leaf. Turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low and simmer gently until the beans are tender, about 2 hours, adding more water if needed to make sure the beans remain submerged.
  • When beans are tender, return the sausage to the pot. Simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning. Ladle into warm bowls and serve drizzled with more vinegar and olive oil.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your stew taste better. Look for plump, firm garbanzo beans, and use a good-quality sausage that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't skip the browning step: Browning the sausage and vegetables adds depth of flavor to the stew. Be sure to brown the sausage in a large pot over medium-high heat until it's browned on all sides, and then remove it from the pot before adding the vegetables. This will help prevent the vegetables from steaming instead of browning.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you add to your stew, the more flavorful it will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes. You can also add other vegetables that you like, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • Season the stew well: A good stew should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices. Be sure to taste the stew as it's cooking and adjust the seasonings accordingly.
  • Let the stew simmer for a while: The longer you simmer the stew, the more time the flavors will have to develop. Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time.

Conclusion:

Garbanzo bean and sausage stew is a hearty, flavorful dish that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give this stew a try.
