How to Make Favorite Black Bean Soup
- Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic, cumin, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- In a blender, puree 1 1/2 cans of the rinsed and drained black beans with 2 cups of chicken broth until smooth.
- Pour the bean puree into the pot along with the remaining whole black beans, diced tomatoes (undrained), chili powder, and salt.
- Add the remaining 2 cups of chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
- Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until flavors have melded and the soup has thickened slightly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
