How to Make

  • Step 2: Using a paper towel, wipe up all the extra grease.

  • Step 3: Add onions to the pan and saute until soft and golden brown.

  • Step 4: Add the beans and enough broth to cover the beans.

  • Step 5: Season with a tablespoon of Tony Chachere’s.

  • Step 6: Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

  • Step 7: Uncover and let simmer until almost all the liquid has cooked off (about 15 minutes.)
