Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the beans

If using dried black beans, soak them overnight and cook them according to package instructions. If using canned beans, rinse and drain them.

2

Sauté the aromatics

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

3

Combine and season

Add the prepared black beans to the skillet along with cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

4

Finish with lime and cilantro

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lime juice and fresh cilantro. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
