* 1-pound dried red beans
* 1 pound andouille sausage, sliced
* 1 large onion, diced
* 1 green bell pepper, diced
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 stalks celery, diced
* 1 teaspoon cumin
* 1 teaspoon paprika
* 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 4 cups chicken broth
* 4 cups water
* 2 bay leaves
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
* 4 cups cooked white rice
1. Rinse the red beans and soak them in water for at least 8 hours or overnight.
2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned on all sides. Remove from the pot and set aside.
3. In the same pot, add the onion, bell pepper, garlic, and celery. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
4. Add the cumin, paprika, chili powder, and cayenne pepper to the pot and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
5. Drain the soaked red beans and add them to the pot along with the chicken broth, water, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2-3 hours or until the beans are tender.
6. Add the cooked sausage to the pot and simmer for an additional 30 minutes.
7. Serve the red beans and rice hot, over cooked white rice. Enjoy!
