Ingredients

  • 4 cups dry black beans

  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil

  • 1 cup diced onion

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup chopped green chiles

  • 1 ½ tablespoons chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

  • ¼ cup chicken broth

  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Place black beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight. Drain.

  2. Place beans in a pot and add enough water to cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer beans until very tender, about 1 hour.

  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium; cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add black beans, green chiles, chili powder, and cumin; cook and stir until flavors blend, about 5 minutes.

  4. Blend black bean mixture in a food processor until smooth. Add tomato paste, chicken broth, vinegar, and salt; blend until desired consistency is reached. Return beans to pot and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes more.
