Recipe Introduction

This recipe was originally done in my crock pot.. but if you want, it's easily done in a soup pot on top of the stove.

List of Ingredients


1/4 lb. Chorizo sausage (if you can't get it.. Kielbasa will do)
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small red pepper, chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
2 TB dry sherry (optional)
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 bay leaf
15 oz. can black beans, undrained
15 oz. can chicken broth
Juice of 1 lime
2 TB minced cilantro
1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper


Recipe


Discard Chorizo skin. Chop sausage and brown in a non-stick skillet for 2 minutes. Add onion, garlic, and peppers. Sauté over medium high heat 5 minutes. Add to slow cooker. Add sherry, cumin, bay leaf, beans and broth. Cover and cook on low 4 to 5 hours.

Remove lid. Scoop out 1-cup beans and press with the back of a fork to mash.
Return to pot. Add lime juice, cilantro, salt and pepper. Simmer uncovered just to warm through, about 5 minutes.
