For a deeper smoky flavor, consider using smoked paprika in addition to the adobo seasoning. Feel free to add other vegetables to the stew, such as diced bell peppers or celery, along with the onion. If you don't have sherry or Marsala wine on hand, dry white wine or chicken broth can be used as a substitute. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness. Serve hot over steamed white rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley for a pop of freshness.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Sausage: Slice the smoked sausage lengthwise, then cut into ¼-inch slices. (5 minutes)
02
StepSauté the Sausage and Onion: Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage and brown for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until nicely caramelized. Add the diced onion and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring until softened and translucent. (10 minutes)
03
StepSimmer the Stew: Stir in the undrained chickpeas (with their liquid), tomato sauce, and sherry wine. Season generously with adobo seasoning, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and garlic powder. Bring the mixture to a simmer. (5 minutes)
04
StepSlow Cook: Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for at least 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. For an even richer flavor, simmer for 1 hour or more, checking occasionally to ensure the stew doesn't dry out. Add a splash of water if needed. (10-60 minutes)
