Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
One 4-ounce can diced green chiles
Two 15-ounce cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup Cotija cheese
Directions
- Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, salt, chile powder and cayenne and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chiles, beans and broth and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans have softened and the sauce has thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with cilantro leaves and Cotija.
