Red Beans and Rice
RECIPE COURTESY OF KENNETH TEMPLE
Level: Easy
Total: 2 hr 30 min
Active: 40 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
Smoked Turkey Neck Stock:
2 pounds smoked turkey necks
Kosher salt
1 bay leaf
Red Beans and Rice:
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 large Spanish or white onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon dried thyme
8 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
2 pounds dark red kidney beans, soaked overnight and drained (see Cook's Note)
2 pounds smoked turkey sausage, sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder or granulated garlic
3 cups cooked white or brown rice
1 bunch green onions (3 to 4 bulbs), sliced 1/4 inch-thick
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Hot sauce, for serving
Garlic bread, for serving
Directions
For the smoked turkey neck stock: Place the smoked turkey necks and 2 tablespoons salt in a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Drain and return the turkey necks to the pot. Add the bay leaf and cover with 10 cups of water. Bring to a simmer, then keep warm while you prepare the red beans ingredients, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the turkey necks and reserve the stock. Set both aside.
For the red beans: Heat the oil in an 8-quart heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Stir in the celery, onions and peppers and cook until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the thyme, garlic and bay leaves and cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add the red beans, smoked turkey sausage, Worcestershire sauce and the reserved turkey necks. Add enough turkey stock to fully cover the beans (about 8 cups) and reserve any remaining stock. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally to keep the beans from sticking, until the beans are tender, and the turkey necks are falling apart, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Uncover the pot, smash some of the beans on the side of the pot with the back of a large metal spoon to make them creamy, then cover and cook for 30 minutes more (see Cook’s Note).
Meanwhile, combine the cayenne, cumin, garlic powder, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl. Combine the green onions and parsley in a small bowl or on your cutting board. Stir the seasoning mixture into the finished beans, taste and adjust the seasoning as desired.
To serve, spoon the beans over a plate of cooked rice. Garnish with the green onions and parsley mixture, sprinkle with hot sauce to taste and serve with garlic bread.
Cook’s Note
To soak 2 pounds of dark red kidney beans, add them to a large bowl and fill with enough water to completely cover the beans. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. The beans will split when properly soaked. Drain before using.
