# Red Beans and Rice
## Ingredients
- **1 lb** dry red beans, soaked overnight, drained, and rinsed
- **2 tbsp.** cooking oil
- **12-16** oz Andouille sausage, sliced into rounds
- **1** yellow onion, diced
- **1** green bell pepper, diced
- **3 ribs** celery, diced
- **4 cloves** garlic, minced
- **6 cups** water
- **1/4 cup** chopped parsley
- **1 tbsp.** salt
### Spices
- **2 tsp.** smoked paprika

- **1 tsp.** dried thyme
- **1/2 tsp.** garlic powder
- **1/2 tsp.** onion powder
- **1/4 tsp.** cayenne pepper
- **1/4 tsp.** freshly cracked black pepper
- **2** bay leaves
## Instructions
1. Heat the **oil** in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the **sausage** and cook until browned.
Remove the sausage to a bowl and refrigerate.
1. Add the **onion**, **bell pepper**, **celery**, and **garlic** to the pot.
Sauté over medium heat until the onions are soft.
1. Add the **spices**. Stir and continue to sauté for another minute.
1. Add the **beans** and **water**. Cover and bring to a boil.
1. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low and boil for one hour, stirring occasionally.
1. Smash the beans against the side of the pot with the back of a spoon.
Continue smashing the beans while simmering uncovered for 30 minutes.
1. Once the red beans have thickened,
add the sausage back to the pot along with the **parsley**.
Stir to combine.
1. Serve hot with rice.
## Notes
- Makes 9 cups.
- Because the rice is cooked separately, and (assuming leftovers) in multiple batches,
I've omitted it from this recipe.
I like 1/2 cup (dry) per serving.
