Ingredients

4 servings

4 slicesbacon

½ cupchicken stock

24gunsalted butter

Instructions

Step 1

Dice the bacon into small segments and cook in a pan over medium heat until crispy.

Step 2

Thinly slice the yellow onion. Remove the bacon from the pan, reserving the fat, and begin to sauté the onion. Add a good pinch of salt and continue to cook until soft.

Step 3

Once softened up, toss in the thinly sliced garlic and jalapeno, and cook for another 30 seconds. Cooking for longer will reduce the fresh, raw chili flavor, if desired.

Step 4

Toss in the drained black beans and the chicken stock. Cook down the chicken stock until almost no liquid is left in the pan.

Step 5

Stir the bacon back in and add the butter. Continue stirring until the butter emulsifies completely.
