A flavorful and hearty soup featuring black beans and aromatic spices, perfect for a cozy meal.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Using extra virgin olive oil adds a rich flavor to the base of the soup.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning, which can make it taste bitter.
Stir in the oregano, thyme, cumin, and cayenne, cooking for an additional minute to release their aromas.
Toasting the spices slightly enhances their flavor and aroma.
Blend half of the black beans with some of the chicken broth until smooth.
Blending the beans creates a creamy texture without the need for cream.
Add the blended mixture, remaining black beans, and chicken broth to the pan. Stir well.
Ensure the mixture is well combined to evenly distribute the flavors.
Simmer the soup for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
Adding fresh cilantro just before serving gives a burst of freshness to the dish.
