Green Chile, Black Bean, and Corn Stew

If you want to, you can stretch this hearty southwestern stew by serving it over brown rice. Put about a half-cup of cooked rice in each bowl, then top with the stew.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4, 1 1/4 cups per serving

Ingredients

1 teaspoon olive oil
6 to 8 ounces Anaheim peppers, poblano peppers, or green bell pepper, chopped
2 cups frozen or canned no-salt-added whole-kernel corn, drained if canned
1 15-ounce can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed and drained
1 14.5-ounce can no-salt-added diced tomatoes or no-salt-added stewed tomatoes, undrained
1 cup water
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the peppers for 6 minutes, or until tender-crisp, stirring frequently.

    Step 2

    Stir in the remaining ingredients except the salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.

    Step 3

    Stir in the salt. Let stand, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes so the flavors blend and the stew thickens slightly.
