A one-pot meal of lentils with spinach and chicken sausage
Heat 1 tsp oil in a large pot or skillet over medium heat.
Slice the chicken sausages, add to the pot and cook until brown, about 5 minutes.
Set sausage aside in a separate bowl.
Add 2 tsp oil and onion to the pot and cook until brown, about 5 minutes.
Add garlic and other seasonings and cook, stirring for a minute or two.
Add water and wine, and increase heat to high then bring to boil.
Rinse the lentils (no need to soak them), sift through and discard any pebbles, bad lentils, or debris.
Add the lentils to the pot and reduce heat to low and cook for 25 minutes.
Add spinach, sausage, and salt and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until the lentils and spinach are tender, about 10-15 more minutes.
Ready to eat!
Brown lentils were used for this recipe. However, you can use black or green. You can even use red, but the texture of your lentil dish will be a bit mushier than if using brown, black, or green lentils.
