Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (14 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed well
1 -2 chipotle chile in adobo, finely chopped
1 tablespoon bacon grease or 1 tablespoon olive oil
1/3 onion, finely diced
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 small bay leaf
salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 -2 cup chicken stock
crema (to garnish)
cilantro (to garnish)
queso fresco (to garnish)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat the bacon grease or olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic and saute until lightly browned. Add the cumin, bay leaf and chopped chipotle. Add the black beans to the saucepan along with just enough chicken stock to make the beans saucy. Stir to make sure everything is well combined and simmer over low heat for 20-25 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Add more stock if the beans become too dry.
  • Season the beans with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve the beans warm, garnished with a few cilantro sprigs and a generous crumble of queso fresco or crema.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these beans were not too spicy for me. They were just the right amount of heat.
