Using canned black beans cuts down so much time so it's ready to serve in about 25 minutes. And since it uses fresh vegetables and savory spices you still have the flavor of traditional Cuban black beans! It's the perfect weeknight dinner recipe!

Cook's Note: I like to mash up at least a half can of the black beans as I am adding them to the pan. This helps add a nice thick consistency to the dish. I also like to serve sprinkled with chopped cilantro and cotija cheese or queso fresco and diced onion. Serve with fresh limes.

Below, in Notes, are instructions on cooking dried beans for this recipe.
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup finely diced red or green bell pepper

  • 1 cup low sodium chicken broth or water
