Ingredients
-
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 small onion, finely diced
-
1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tablespoon chili powder
-
2 teaspoons ground cumin
-
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chile, (see Note)

⅛ teaspoon salt, or to taste

1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed
-
1 cup canned diced tomatoes

2 teaspoons lime juice

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and potato and cook, stirring often, until the onion is slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, chili powder, cumin, chipotle and salt and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add water, bring to a simmer, cover, reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the potato is tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes and lime juice; increase heat to high and return to a simmer, stirring often. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in cilantro.
Tips
Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate for 2 days. Stir in cilantro just before serving.
Note: Chipotle peppers are dried, smoked jalapeno peppers. Ground chipotle can be found in the specialty spice section of most supermarkets.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
