Preparations
Heat oil in a medium sauce pot on medium-high heat. Add onions and sweat until translucent, approximately 6-8 minutes. Add red pepper and garlic and cook until peppers have softened, and garlic is fragrant and just turning brown. At this point, add the vinegars to deglaze the bottom of the pan and add remaining ingredients, excluding fava beans. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 2 minutes.
Add fava beans to the pot. Bring up to simmer, stirring to ensure its evenly cooked. Let it sit for 2 minutes. When fava beans are tender, add Spicy Mexican Chipotle Plant-Based Sausages, return to simmer, and garnish with cilantro. Serve with crusty bread for dunking.
