Quick Cuban Style Black Beans

• servings: 6 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 (15 ounce) cans Black Beans, do not drain

2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar

½ teaspoon Garlic Powder

½ teaspoon Dried Oregano

¼ teaspoon Onion Powder

¼ teaspoon Salt

¼ teaspoon Black Pepper

⅛ teaspoon Cumin

Chopped Parsley (for garnish – optional)

Directions

Add the black beans with the liquid (do not drain) to a saucepan.

Add the olive oil, vinegar, garlic powder, oregano, onion powder, salt, pepper and cumin to the saucepan. Stir well until combined.

Cover the saucepan and bring the black beans to a simmer over medium heat.

When they start to simmer, lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to come together.

Keep the beans at a simmer, lower the heat if necessary. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pan, especially as they thicken.

Serve the beans with white rice and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
