Ingredients
- 3 cans (15 oz) black beans drained, not rinsed*
- 2 tablespoon butter
- ½ large yellow onion (¾ c), diced
- 1-2 jalapeños (¼ c), seeded and diced
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 can tomato juice (5.5 oz)
- cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Melt butter in nonstick pan over medium heat. Add diced jalapeño and onion to pan and cook until onion is translucent, stirring occasionally (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add garlic, cumin, and salt and continue stirring for about 1 minute, or until aromatic. Add beans and tomato juice, then stir together. Once well combined, place lid on and allow to cook on medium heat for about 6-7 minutes.
- Turn heat to low, remove lid and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow excess liquid to cook out.
- Garnish with cilantro and enjoy!
Notes
*Drain the excess liquid from the can, but it isn't necessary to get rid of all of it/rinse the beans off--the excess liquid is salty so leaving some in the recipe may add some flavor, but all of it is too much.
