Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 yellow onion peeled and diced
- 1 Jalapeño seeded and diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 30 ounces canned black beans drained and rinsed (2 cans)
- 4 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Add the olive oil to a medium saucepan and place over medium heat. Add the onion and jalapeno and cook for 2-3 minutes until the onions are tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring often.
- Add the black beans, chicken stock, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the pot and stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer. Cook for about 25 minutes until the liquid has reduced and the beans are thickened but not dry. Periodically, mash the beans with a potato masher.
