Time 10h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound mayocoba beans (such as Rancho Gordo®)
water to cover
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 white onion, chopped
4 Roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
1 serrano chile pepper, minced
2 rotisserie chicken breasts, diced
1 quart chicken stock
½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Put mayocoba beans into a large container with enough cool water to cover by several inches. Let beans soak 8 hours to overnight.
  • Drain and rinse beans thoroughly; put into a large stockpot. Add enough water to cover beans by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cover the pot. Simmer until beans are soft in the center, about 90 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and serrano pepper; simmer until softened slightly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking until liquid begins to thicken, about 10 minutes more. Season tomato mixture with salt and remove from heat.
  • Heat remaining oil in another large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato mixture and simmer 10 minutes. Pour in chicken stock. Bring soup to a boil and simmer until flavors combine, 15 minutes more. Stir into the pot of beans. Add cilantro and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until beans are completely softened, about 30 minutes more.
