  • 2 roasted red bell peppers, chopped
  • 2 (15 oz. each) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 chipotle peppers, seeded and minced (sold in cans in adobo sauce)

  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add onion and cooking, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
