My son and husband love this hearty side dish that is quick and easy to prepare but yet so flavorful. Chocolate, chili and honey mingle to create a rich, savory flavor that's not too spicy and not too sweet. —Roxanne Chan, Albany, California

Ingredients

1/4 pound fresh chorizo, crumbled
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 large garlic clove, minced

1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, rinsed and drained

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°. In a large, ovenproof skillet with a lid, cook chorizo, onion, red pepper and garlic over medium heat until sausage is browned, 4-6 minutes. Add next 9 ingredients; mix well. Bake, covered, until mixture is thickened and flavors are blended, about 40 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Test Kitchen tips

Although this dish is great with several different types of beans, it would be equally good with just one.

You could add 2 to 3 cups of broth to make a festive mole chili.
