Directions

  1. 1

    Prep the Ingredients

    Chop the onion, garlic, and bell pepper into small pieces. Rinse and drain the black beans. Chop the cilantro and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and bell pepper, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Add Spices

    Stir in the ground cumin, coriander, and chili powder. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices and release their flavors.

  4. 4

    Combine Beans and Tomatoes

    Add the black beans and diced tomatoes to the skillet. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  5. 5

    Season to Taste

    Taste the mixture and add salt and black pepper as desired. Stir in the fresh cilantro just before serving.

  6. 6

    Prepare Avocado and Lime

    Slice the avocado and lime for serving.

  7. 7

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet or on a griddle, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  8. 8

    Assemble El Buho Joven

    To serve, place a generous scoop of the black bean mixture onto each tortilla. Top with avocado slices and a squeeze of fresh lime. Roll or fold the tortillas and enjoy!
