Frontier Beans
Ingredients
- 1 c sliced green onions
- 1/2 pound bulk chorizo sausage
- 2 16-oz cans pinto beans, 1 can drained
- 3 small poblano chilies roasted, peeled, seeded, and chopped
- 1 large tomato (about 1 cup)
- 1/4 ts salt
Instructions
Yield: 6 servings. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook onions and sausage in 8-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sausage is no longer pink; drain. Mix sausage mixture and remaining ingredients in ungreased 2-quart casserole. Bake uncovered about 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly. To roast chilies: Broiler method: Set oven control to broil. Arrange whole chilies with their top surfaces about 5 inches from the heat. (Some people cut a small slit in the shoulder of each chili to prevent it from bursting.) Broil, turning occasionally, until the skin is blistered and evenly browned (not burned). Remove chilies to a plastic bag and close tightly; let chilies stand for 20 minutes, then peel. Anaheim and pablano chilies will roast in 12 to 17 minutes; jalapeno and serrano chilies, in about 5 minutes. Gas stove-top method: Spear a whole chili on a long-handled metal fork, and hold it about 5 inches from the flame. Turn the chili so that it roasts evenly. Place roasted chilies in a plastic bag and close tightly; let chilies stand for 20 minutes, then peel.
