Ingredients

  • 1 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 c chopped onion
  • 1/2 T minced garlic
  • 1/2 c beer
  • 1.5 c cooked black beans (drained but still moist (can also use pinto, pink, or black-eyed beans))
  • 3/4 t chili powder (to taste)
  • 1/2 T honey
  • salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)

Method

Put the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes.  Add the garlic, cook for about a minute, then add the remaining ingredients with a good sprinkling of salt and pepper.

Bring to a steady bubble and cook until the liquid is slightly reduced and thickened, about 15 minutes.  Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.  Serve hot or refrigerate for up to 3 days and then reheat.

Notes

SJ Note 2 Oct 2009: I didn't like the flavor at all; it's also too spicy with this much chili powder.  Definitely not a keeper.
