- 1 tbsp butter or vegetable oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp jalapeño, finely chopped (optional)
- ½ lb fresh chorizo, casing removed
- 1½ cups canned or
- fresh tomatoes, puréed
- 1½ cups butter beans, navy beans, or cannelini beans
- salt and pepper
Instructions :
Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat and
swirl it to coat the pan. Add the chopped onion
and cook until it turns translucent. Toss in the
garlic, jalapeño, and fresh chorizo (or any other
kind of fresh sausage), then sauté for about
a minute. Add the tomatoes and beans, then
simmer until the sauce is thick and the sausage
is cooked, about 5 minutes on medium heat.
Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
Because this sauce contains meat, it won’t keep
especially long in the fridge, but you can freeze
it for later use if you don’t plan to eat it all
within a few days.
