Delicious beans with chorizo

First, clean and cut the beans into small pieces. For this dish, I recommend that they are not too large so that they cook well and are not hard.

Cut the onion, peppers and garlic cloves into small cubes. This size is ideal so that they are well distributed in the preparation and each bite is full of flavor.

In a large saucepan, add a drizzle of olive oil and add the onion, peppers and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat until well browned.

While the vegetables are cooking, cut the chorizo into slices. It is important that they are neither too thick nor too thin so that they cook evenly.

Add the chorizo to the casserole with the vegetables. Add the bay leaf and season with salt, pepper and sweet paprika. The latter will give a particular flavor and color to the preparation.

Add the beans and stir well to mix with the other ingredients. Cook for a few minutes.

Add water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for 40 minutes or until beans are tender. This is a very important point, you have to be patient and careful not to overcook and end up with very soft beans.

Finally, adjust the seasoning and serve hot.
