Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, cook for 1 minute. Add peppers and garlic, cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, chipotle, and turmeric. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  2. Drain beans and add to the pot. Pour in enough chicken broth to cover beans. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring every 20 minutes and adding more broth if needed, until tender, about 2 hours.

Recipe Note

Slow-carb diet friendly. We eat this daily. Keep it in stock. I separate this into mini food storage containers and freeze for an easy side dish to reheat when I don't have free time. Make sure to soak kidney beans the night before.
