Creole Lima Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Soak beans in enough water to cover, overnight; drain and rinse. Melt butter and add onion and garlic. Saute for 10 minutes. Add fresh tomato and sugar. Saute for 5 minutes. Add Rotels, beans, sausage and enough water to cover beans by one inch. Cook 2 hours or until tender. Add salt and pepper. Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Cook beans according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook bacon, onion and green pepper over medium heat until bacon is crisp and vegetables are tender. Remove with a slotted spoon., Stir the flour, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper and mustard into the drippings until blended. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Drain beans and add to skillet. Stir in bacon mixture.

Steps:

• Brown bacon in a 4-quart chef's pan or saute pan over medium heat, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper and add to the bacon drippings in the pan. Brown over medium heat, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the same pan and cook in the drippings over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut browned chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and chop the browned bacon. Add to the vegetables once tender. Stir in frozen baby lima beans, crushed tomatoes, and chicken broth. Season with Creole seasoning and adjust salt and pepper, if necessary.
• Press lima beans down into the cooking broth so they cook evenly. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook uncovered, stirring every 5 to 10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a big soup pot; add in onion; saute over medium heat until translucent.
• Add in celery and bell pepper; saute another 5 minutes.
• Slowly sprinkle in the flour and stir until well integrated with the vegetables, then stir in the water.
• Add in the next 8 ingredients (lima beans through red pepper flakes); bring to a rapid simmer, then decrease heat; cover and simmer gently for 30-35 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the parsley.
• Add a small amount of water if needed, but let the stew remain thick.
• Adjust the other seasonings if needed; discard bay leaves.
• Serve in bowls over hot cooked rice.

Steps:

• Heat the coconut oil in a Dutch oven set over medium heat. Add the leeks, carrots and celery, and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, garlic, thyme, bay leaves and creole seasoning; stir, and saute 2 more minutes.
• Add the mushroom broth, beer, tomatoes and pinto beans. Bring to a simmer, then cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the beans are tender, about 1 hour.
• Uncover the pot and cook until the liquid is reduced by one-third, about 15 minutes. Season with 2 tablespoons of the miso paste and some pepper. Taste and add more miso as needed.
