LENTIL SLOPPY JOES
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Add the broth to a large saucepan, followed by the rinsed lentils. Stir gently and bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
- Add the olive oil to a large cast-iron pan (or other heavy-bottomed pan) and heat on medium-high heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced bell pepper. Add the salt and pepper. Sauté until the vegetables have softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the tomato sauce, brown sugar, steak sauce, chili powder, ketchup, and smoked paprika to the vegetables. Stir to combine and heat on medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes to help develop the flavors. If you're short on time, you can shorten it to 5 minutes.
- Add the cooked lentils into the sauce and stir to combine. Cook for another 2 to 5 minutes so the lentils can absorb some of the sauce. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed.
- Gather the buns and toppings.
- Toast your hamburger buns if you wish, then top with a heaping pile of the lentil mixture, sliced onions, and squirt of mustard. Serve immediately with your favorite fries or chips.
