Easy
15 minutes, plus soaking time
30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 200 g dried butter beans
  • 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 200 g Spanish chorizo, sliced
  • 1 t smoked paprika
  • 4 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 60 ml sherry vinegar
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 T flat-leaf parsley, chopped, for serving
  • 2 lemons, juiced

Method
