In this guide, I’ll take you through the step-by-step process of making delicious frijoles charros.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of pinto beans
  • 4 cups of water
  • 4 slices of bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 cup of chorizo, diced
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
  • 1 teaspoon of cumin
  • 1 teaspoon of oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cilantro for garnish

Instructions:

1. Rinse the pinto beans and remove any debris. Place them in a pot and cover with water. Let them soak overnight.

2. The next day, drain the beans and rinse them again. In a large pot, combine the beans with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 1 hour until the beans are tender.

4. In the same skillet, add the diced chorizo and cook until browned. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set it aside.

5. In a separate pan, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until they become translucent.

6. Add the diced tomatoes and minced jalapeño pepper to the pan. Cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.

7. Once the beans are tender, add the cooked bacon, chorizo, onion, garlic, tomatoes, and jalapeño pepper to the pot. Stir in the cumin and oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

8. Serve the frijoles charros hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.

9. Enjoy your homemade frijoles charros with warm tortillas, Mexican rice, or as a side dish to your favorite Mexican dishes.
