Ingredients
- 2 cans (15-ounce each), drained and rinsed black beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, finely diced yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 seeded and finely chopped jalapeño
- 1 can (14.5-ounce) fire-roasted tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 0.25 cup, chopped fresh cilantro

- 0.5 cup (optional, for topping) shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup (optional, for topping) sour cream

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, cumin powder, and smoked paprika. Cook for 1 minute, allowing the spices to bloom.
Add the chopped jalapeño and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Stir in the fire-roasted tomatoes and black beans. Mix well and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to mash some of the beans while leaving some whole for texture.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in lime juice, chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and, if desired, top with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream.
Serve warm with tortilla chips for dipping.
