1 cup small diced yellow onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger

SWEET AND SPICY KIDNEY BEANS



Sweet and Spicy Kidney Beans image

I came up with this on a night when I had nothing in the kitchen. I was trying to follow a low fat vegetarian diet at the time, and this actually was very satisfying. I couldn't call them barbecue beans, because...well, because they're not! It's very easy, quick and nutritious, almost like chili, but not quite. All measurements given are estimations.

Categories     Beans

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, chopped
salt
pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 -2 ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 can kidney bean, with liquid
1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
barbecue sauce, to taste (I used an organic brand, Wild Thymes Spicy Barbecue; it's chunky, hot and sweet, but not smoky)
red hot sauce, to taste
beer, maybe 1/2 cup (optional)

Steps:

  • Spray non stick skillet with olive oil to lightly coat (if using something that is not non stick, you may have to use more oil.) When hot, add onions.
  • After those just start to wilt, add garlic and dry spices.
  • Continue until aromatic and golden.
  • Add tomatoes and cook until they soften and release liquid.
  • Reduce heat and add remaining ingredients.
  • Simmer until slightly thickened.
  • If mixture gets too thick, add water.
  • Serve as a side dish or with noodles or rice.
  • I had them as a main course with no-yolk egg noodles and it was surprisingly good.

Tips:

  • Soaking the kidney beans: Soaking the beans overnight or for at least 8 hours helps reduce cooking time and makes them more digestible.
  • Using canned kidney beans: If you're short on time, you can use canned kidney beans instead. Just be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • Sautéing the vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables in a little bit of oil helps bring out their flavor and add depth to the dish.
  • Using a variety of spices: The combination of chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper gives this dish a delicious sweet and spicy flavor.
  • Adjusting the spiciness: If you don't like spicy food, you can reduce the amount of cayenne pepper or omit it altogether.
  • Serving suggestions: Serve the kidney beans over rice, quinoa, or your favorite grain. You can also serve them as a side dish or as part of a main course.

Conclusion:

This sweet and spicy kidney bean recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this healthy and versatile legume. With its combination of sweet and spicy flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
