Directions
Jagacida (Portuguese Jag), My mother came from a mixed family because my Grammie was married twice, the first time to a Portugue Mom’s sister Susan is one of her half-Portugue siblings When I was a kid, Aunt Sue used to make this Portugue Jag all the time used to beg her to make it and invite us (my siblings and I) for lunch Sometimes she said NO, but when she said YES it was heavenly I never got the recipe, much to my disappointment, but I think I’ve been able to reconstruct it Here it is!, I changed this recipe quite a bit but it turned out really well! I wanted something really quick after work, so I made long grain brown rice with broth in my rice cooker before hand When I came home, I quickly threw this together (fried the onion and garlic in oil, added the cooked chicken sausage, tomato paste, and canned beans, added the cooked rice, then topped it with the white pepper) I was able to double the recipe successfully Tasty and easy! Thanks for posting!, We love Jag around here this is a good basic recipe I usually double the linguica (by request LOL!) use kidney beans instead of lima beans I’ve used ketchup instead of paste if I didn’t have it I get requests for this recipe all the time Simple and yummy!
