Andouille Sausage And Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the sausage, Cajun seasoning, onion, garlic, and celery over medium heat for several minutes.
• Add beans, stewed tomatoes, bouillon and water. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Mix the remaining water and corn starch and add it to recipe. Mix to thicken.
• Serve the mixture in individual soup bowls with a portion of cooked rice on the top.

Steps:

• Combine oil and flour in a Dutch oven; cook over medium heat, stirring, until mixture is golden colored about 10 to 15 minutes. Add onion, garlic, green pepper, celery and green onions. Cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or more until vegetables are tender.
• Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, red pepper flakes, seasoning salt, bay leaves, 1 cup of water, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and sausage. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the bay leaves. Garnish with parsley and serve over grits, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium high heat. Add the ham hock, onions, celery, and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the bay leaves, thyme, and garlic, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the beans and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so that the beans just simmer and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the skin on the beans is tender and the beans begin to soften, about 2 hours. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add the sausage and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are soft and creamy, about 1 hour longer*. (If desired, the ham hock can be removed at this point and either discarded or, when cool enough to handle, the meat can be removed from the bone and returned to the beans and the bone and skin discarded.) Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs and serve the beans and sausage over hot white rice.
• Pass the hot sauce at the table for guests to use at their own discretion.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add andouille; cook until fat is released and sausage is slightly golden in spots, 10 to 12 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate. Add onion and garlic to pan; cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add beans and 4 1/2 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, partially cover, and cook until beans are tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours, adding more water if necessary. Stir in andouille and heat through; season with salt and pepper.

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.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown sausage over medium heat; drain. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Stir in remaining ingredients except rice. Cook, covered, on low until vegetables are tender, 6-8 hours. Discard bay leaves. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente according to the package's instructions.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add shallot and garlic and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 2 minutes.
• Add collard greens and toss to wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the thyme, cannellini beans and tomatoes and toss to warm through. Season again with salt and pepper to taste.
• Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water and drain pasta. Return pasta to the empty pot and set over medium-low. Add the sausage mixture and toss to combine, gradually adding the reserved pasta water as needed to create a sauce.
• Remove from the heat and sprinkle with parsley, chives, lemon zest and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide among bowls, drizzle with olive oil and serve with lemon wedges.
