20 Minute Skillet Refried Beans image

Categories     Side

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 cup onion (diced)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
2 (15 ounces each) cans pinto beans (DO NOT rinse and drain)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (omit if you don't want the heat)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and saute for 4-5 minutes or until onion is translucent.
  • Add garlic to melted butter and onions and saute for another minute.
  • Add pinto beans (don't wash and drain them first - just dump in the whole can), cumin, chili powder and cayenne powder to skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes or until beans are heated through.
  • Using a potato masher, mash beans until they become the consistency that you prefer (my husband likes them completely smooth while I prefer them to be a little chunky. You could also put the beans in a blender to make them super smooth).
  • If desired, top with some shredded cheese and fresh cilantro.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The beans were a little bland and I didn't really like the texture.

These refried beans were a little too spicy for my taste, but other than that they were pretty good.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my beans turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much water.
