Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Rinse the red beans and soak them in water overnight. Chop the onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a large pot, cook the chorizo sausage over medium heat until browned. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

    Add Chorizo and Simmer

    Return the cooked chorizo to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 1-1.5 hours, or until the beans are tender.

    Serve

    Remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve the red beans over cooked rice.
