Provided by รก-174942

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound dried navy, Great Northern or other small white beans
Water as neded
1/2 pound bacon
1 large onion chopped
3 garlic cloves minced
1 can tomato paste - (6 oz)
1 pound Spanish (not Mexican) chorizo cut 1/4" slices
or other spicy smoked sausage
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes or to taste
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
Salt to taste

Steps:

Drain on paper towels and set aside. Pour off all but 2 or 3 tablespoons of bacon fat, add onion and cook until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more. Add beans, 8 cups water, tomato paste, chorizo, red pepper flakes and paprika. Cover and simmer until beans are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Just before serving, crumble bacon into beans and season with salt and pepper. This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.

This recipe was a disaster! The beans were undercooked and the sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I added a little too much cayenne pepper. Overall, it was a good recipe and I would make it again.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The beans are so flavorful and the sauce is delicious. I like to add a little extra garlic and paprika to give it a bit of a kick.
