Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Canned navy beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 cups Teriyaki sauce
- 0.5 cups Barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Optional: Chopped green onions (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the drained and rinsed navy beans to the skillet, stirring to combine with the onion and garlic mixture.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and smoked paprika until well combined.
Pour the sauce mixture over the beans in the skillet, stirring to coat evenly.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste and continue cooking uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove from heat and let the beans cool for a few minutes before serving.
Optional: Garnish with chopped green onions for a burst of freshness and extra flavor.
Serve warm as a side dish at your next barbecue or as a hearty and flavorful main course.
