Pour your rinsed beans into the sizzling skillet. Stir them into the fat and spices.
Let them heat through for about 5 minutes. Stir gently so they don’t turn to mush.
If they look dry, add a splash of chicken broth or even water. Beans like a little bath, not a swim.
The Ultimate Upgrade
Mash a small handful of beans against the side of the skillet. This releases their starchy heart.
That starch thickens everything. Suddenly, your beans have a creamy, velvety texture. You just performed kitchen magic.
No wizard hat required.
