Ingredients

Diced bacon slices, medium onion halved and peeled, jalapeno pepper halved and seeded, canned black beans of 29 ounces (like Goya®), unsweetened coconut water of 12 ounces, ½ cup of white Spanish cooking wine, ground cumin of ½ tablespoon, and a single bay leaf.

Step 1

Saute the bacon, onion, and jalapeno in a cozy soup pot over medium heat until the bacon turns a delicious golden brown and is almost fully cooked, approximately 5 minutes. Add in the flavorful black beans, refreshing coconut water, fragrant white cooking wine, aromatic cumin, and a hint of bay leaf. Allow the mixture to simmer gently over medium heat until it reaches a rich, thick consistency, which usually takes about an hour. Remember to cover the pot while cooking to lock in all the wonderful flavors and aromas.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

1. Keep your pantry stocked with black beans, coconut milk, and savory spices like cumin and smoked paprika for quick and easy meal prep.
2. Store leftover black bean coconut stew in a glass container for a pop of color in your fridge and easy reheating later on.
