Categories     Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow or white onion (about 1/2 small onion)
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cans (15 ounces each) pinto beans, rinsed and drained, or 3 cups cooked pinto beans
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice (about 1/2 medium lime), to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and are turning translucent, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, chili powder and cumin. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the drained beans and water. Stir, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low and remove the lid. Use a potato masher or the back of a fork to mash up about at least half of the beans, until you reach your desired consistency. Continue to cook the beans, uncovered, stirring often, for 3 more minutes.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste, and add more salt and lime juice if necessary. If the beans seem dry, add a very small splash of water and stir to combine. Cover until you're ready to serve.

Categories     Side

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 cup onion (diced)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
2 (15 ounces each) cans pinto beans (DO NOT rinse and drain)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and saute for 4-5 minutes or until onion is translucent.
  • Add garlic to melted butter and onions and saute for another minute.
  • Add pinto beans (don't wash and drain them first - just dump in the whole can), cumin, chili powder and cayenne powder to skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes or until beans are heated through.
  • Using a potato masher, mash beans until they become the consistency that you prefer (my husband likes them completely smooth while I prefer them to be a little chunky. You could also put the beans in a blender to make them super smooth).
