Chorizo Lentil Stew

We had a salad planned for dinner tonight, but it was cold and rainy and I felt like having something warm and comforting instead, so I put this together with what we had on hand.  It was delicious.

Chorizo Lentil Stew

Nouns:

2 cups dry lentils

3 links chicken chorizo, chopped in 1/2 inch pieces

3 carrots, chopped

2 celery ribs, chopped

1 onion, diced

2 cups vegetable broth

2 tsp curry powder

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp chili garlic sauce

1/2 cup OJ

additional water as needed cover lentils 

Verbs:

Drizzle some olive oil in the pan and add the carrots, celery, onion and chorizo, stirring over medium high heat for several minutes.  Add the lentils, broth, spices and chili garlic sauce.  Simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes, or until lentils are done.  Add more water if necessary.  When the lentils are done, add the OJ and stir to combine.  Simmer 1-2 more minutes, and serve.

Yummy!
