Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried black beans, soaked overnight in hot water to cover
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/3 cup chopped onions
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon seeded and chopped jalapeno peppers
  • 6 cups Basic Chicken Stock [3]
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon Emeril's Southwest Seasoning [4]
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 turns freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  • Drain and rinse the beans. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the onions, garlic, jalapenos, and beans and saute, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the stock, lime juice, Southwest Seasoning, chili powder, and cumin. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 50 to 60 minutes, or as needed until the beans are tender.

  • Stir in the salt, pepper, and cilantro and simmer for about 5 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Serve immediately or store, refrigerated, in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.
