Beans Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

   Add the Beans and Seasonings

   Stir in the canned black beans (drained and rinsed), cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

3. 3

   Cook the Beans

   Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the mixture becomes too thick, you can add a splash of water.

   Finish and Serve

   Remove from heat and stir in the fresh cilantro and lime juice. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve warm as a side dish.
