Ingredients
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ yellow onion, diced
1 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained
1 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced onion, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the drained pinto beans and chicken broth. Stir in the ground cumin and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a gentle boil and simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Transfer the entire mixture, including the liquid, to a food processor or blender. Process until you reach your desired consistency—blend until smooth for a creamy dip, or pulse a few times for a slightly chunky texture.
Transfer the warm dip to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable crudités, or alongside rice.
