Soup:
- 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil canola, vegetable, olive, coconut, generic cooking oil
- 1 red onion coarsely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 cans (14-ounces each) cans (14-ounces each) diced tomatoes undrained, fire-roasted
- 2 cans (15-ounces each) cans (15-ounces each) black beans rinsed and drained
- 2 ½ cups chicken broth low-sodium

Salsa:

- 1 clove garlic finely minced or pressed
- 1 cup corn kernels thawed if frozen, fresh or frozen
- ½ cup red pepper chopped
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped

Instructions
- In a 4-quart pot, heat the oil over medium heat until rippling. Add the onion and saute 4-5 minutes until it turns translucent. Add the garlic, oregano, cumin and chili powder and cook, stirring constantly, for another minute or so.
- Stir in the tomatoes, black beans, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 30-45 minutes. Carefully puree the soup with a handheld immersion blender or by ladling it into a blender (may need to do it in batches depending on the size of your blender). Puree to your desired consistency. Stir in the lime juice and any additional salt and pepper to taste, if needed.
- For the salsa, stir together the ingredients, adding salt and pepper to taste. The salsa can be covered and refrigerated for a day or so.
- Ladle the warm soup into bowls and top with a generous spoonful of salsa.
Notes
- Gluten-Free: I have this soup categorized as gluten-free so take care to read labels on chicken broth to make sure the broth you are buying truly is gluten-free.
- Corn: if you are using fresh corn kernels in the salsa, make sure the corn has been steamed/cooked before using as fresh, uncooked corn kernels won't be very tasty.
