Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Soak the beans for 4 hours or overnight in a large bowl with plenty of water. The next day, drain the water, rinse, and let drain.
  2. In a large heavy-bottomed pot, combine the rinsed beans, onion, paprika, sprigs of thyme, bay leaf, and chicken thighs. Cover with water or broth so that everything is submerged. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover with a lid, and simmer for 45 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken to a separate plate. Add diced potatoes and diced chorizo to the pot. Continue cooking for another 30 minutes until the beans and potatoes are tender.
  4. Once cooled, remove the skin and bones from the chicken and break into large pieces. Return the meat to the pot, add fresh spinach, and cook for another 5 minutes until the spinach is tender. Serve hot.
