EASY MEXICAN BEAN SOUP



Easy Mexican Bean Soup image

This is a trusty Mexican Bean Soup recipe that you can use with any type of bean -- but please try to make it with some stock that you trust as it makes a huge difference! I used homemade vegetable stock but chicken stock is an equally good choice.

Provided by Mexican Please

Categories     Soup

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups cooked beans (or a 15 oz. can)
2 cups stock
1/2 onion
2 garlic cloves
2-3 plum tomatoes
1 chipotle in adobo
1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
freshly cracked black pepper
olive oil
Mexican Crema
squeeze of lime
freshly chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Give the tomatoes a good rinse. I usually de-stem them as well knowing that any juices in the roasting pan will go in the blender too. Roast the tomatoes in the oven (400F) for 20-25 mintues.
  • Once the tomatoes have been roasting for a bit, saute the roughly chopped 1/2 onion in some oil over medium heat along with the peeled garlic cloves. You can leave the garlic cloves whole as all of this is going in the blender eventually.
  • Add the roasted tomatoes to the onion-garlic mixture along with: 2 cups cooked beans, 2 cups stock, 1 chipotle in adobo, 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano, 1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and some freshly cracked black pepper. I usually drain and rinse canned beans.
  • Bring this mixture to a uniform temp and then combine well in a blender. I usually leave it a bit chunky. Be sure to use caution when blending warm ingredients as steam can create upwards pressure on the lid.
  • Add the bean mixture back to the pan and bring it up to a simmer. Once simmering be sure to give it a final taste for seasoning! I added more salt at this point (so a heaping teaspoon total for this batch) and another generous pinch of Mexican oregano.
  • Serve immediately with your choice of garnish. I used Mexican Crema, freshly chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge where it will keep for a few days.

CHICKEN CORN BLACK BEAN SOUP



Chicken Corn Black Bean Soup image

This was so delicious. I couldn't get over how quick and easy it was with such a well blended flavor. My husband tried to go back for a 3rd bowl but I put it up so we could have leftovers for the next day. If you like it a little thicker, stir a couple tablespoons of cornstarch into cold water and whisk into boiling soup for a couple minutes to thicken. Personally, the sour cream, cheese and chips thickened it enough for me. Hubby went back for seconds so he ate it too quick to even notice. Top with blue corn tortilla chips, sour cream, and shredded Mexican-style cheese.

Provided by gem

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Beans and Peas

Time 10h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound mayocoba beans (such as Rancho Gordo®)
water to cover
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 white onion, chopped
4 Roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
1 serrano chile pepper, minced
2 rotisserie chicken breasts, diced
1 quart chicken stock
½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Put mayocoba beans into a large container with enough cool water to cover by several inches. Let beans soak 8 hours to overnight.
  • Drain and rinse beans thoroughly; put into a large stockpot. Add enough water to cover beans by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cover the pot. Simmer until beans are soft in the center, about 90 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.

Season tomato mixture with salt and remove from heat.
  • Heat remaining oil in another large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato mixture and simmer 10 minutes. Pour in chicken stock. Bring soup to a boil and simmer until flavors combine, 15 minutes more. Stir into the pot of beans. Add cilantro and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until beans are completely softened, about 30 minutes more.
