AUTHENTIC AND QUICK RED BEANS AND RICE (WITH ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE)



Authentic and Quick Red Beans and Rice (With Andouille Sausage) image

I modified this from an authentic Louisiana Red Beans & Rice recipe because I didn't have time to soak dried beans. This still has all the flavor, but is faster since it uses canned beans. A nice touch is to use both light and dark kidney beans and to crumble some sausage into the mix. People will ask you for the recipe for this one!

Categories     Stew

Time 2h30m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 (15 ounce) cans light kidney beans
1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 stalks celery & tops, chopped
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried sage
1 tablespoon dried parsley
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning, like Tony Cachere's Creole Seasoning
1 1/2 lbs andouille sausages, sliced
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes (Fire Roasted)
2 tablespoons sofrito sauce (optional, Goya brand)
1 (1/2 ounce) packet sazon goya (optional)
3 cups long grain white rice, cooked

Steps:

  • Heat one cup of water and soak bay leaves in the water for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced celery and cook 1-2 minutes. Then add diced Onion, bell pepper, and garlic and cook 3-4 minutes.
  • Transfer vegetables to large stock pot. Drain kidney beans, reserving some of the liquid, and add beans to pot. Add one can of diced tomatoes (with liquid) to stock pot. Remove the bay leaves from the hot water and add the seasoned liquid to the pot. (If the bay leaves have not soaked long enough, you can add them later). If additional liquid is needed, add some of the reserved liquid from the beans or a small amount of water.
  • In the same skillet you sauteed vegetables in, add Andouille sausage and cook over medium heat. You can slice the sausage then cook it or cook whole sausage then let cool and slice.
  • Add cayenne pepper, thyme, sage, parsley, and Cajun seasoning to the stock pot with the beans and vegetables. Bring to a slight boil, and then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 1 hour.
  • Stir cooked sausage into beans, and continue to simmer for 30 minutes. At this point, you can add Goya brand Sofrito (a sauce used to season soups and stews) or 1 packet Sazon Goya (a seasoning packet that contains MSG) if desired. You can find Goya products in the Mexican food aisle of the grocery store.
  • Add additional water, salt, pepper, or Creole seasoning to taste, if needed.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the rice. In a saucepan, put 1 Tablespoon butter, and 2 cups water for every one cup dry rice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Serve beans over steamed white rice. Serve Louisiana Hot Sauce at the table, if desired.

Categories     Sauce     Bean     Rice     Side     Lunch     Sausage     Simmer

Yield serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound smoked ham, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 onions, chopped
2 red or green bell peppers, cored, seeded, and chopped
2 garlic cloves, smashed
2 1/2 cups (about 1 pound) dried red beans, soaked in water overnight and drained
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 bay leaves
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
3 generous dashes of hot sauce, plus more for serving
Sea salt
1 pound andouille sausage, sliced
Steamed long-grain white rice or Carolina Gold Rice (page 215)
4 scallions, trimmed and minced

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until sizzling hot (see Know-how, page 100). Add the ham and cook and stir for about 5 minutes, until it begins to brown. Reduce the heat to medium, stir in the onions and bell peppers, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes more, until the onions are soft and light brown and the peppers are brightly colored and tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
  • Add the beans, 1/2 cup of the parsley, the Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the thyme, the red pepper flakes, black pepper, hot sauce, and salt to taste. Add enough water to cover the beans by about 2 inches and simmer, uncovered, for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender. Add more water if needed; the beans should always be covered by at least 1 inch of water.
  • When the beans are tender, remove the bay leaves, stir in the sausage and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme, and cook for about 30 minutes more, stirring occasionally, until the beans develop a thick, creamy gravy. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup parsley and season with additional salt and black pepper, if desired.
  • Serve hot over a bed of steamed white rice or Carolina Gold Rice, garnished with the scallions and with extra hot sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more tender.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use will add a lot of flavor to the dish, so choose one that you like. Chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even water can be used.
  • Don't overcook the beans: Beans are done cooking when they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked beans will be mushy.
  • Add the sausage and vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.

Conclusion:

Red beans and rice is a classic dish that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
