Ingredients

  • 1 13- ounce bag of Mission® Strips Tortilla Chips
  • 1 jalapeño pepper
  • 12 ounce can black beans drained
  • ½ cup Mexican crema or sour cream
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice the juice from 1 small lime
  • ½ cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste

FOR GARNISH: Crumbly white cheese, fresh chopped herbs, spicy chili flakes

    Instructions

    • Roast the jalapeño pepper over an open flame, flipping here and there until the skin chars and blackens. It will start to do so in about 2-3 minutes. Alternatively, you can roast the jalapeño in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes or so, until the skins blackens and bubbles up.
    • Flip the jalapeño and blacken both sides. Add the jalapeño to a paper bag or plastic baggie and seal. Let it steam in the baggie for about 5 minutes to loosen the skin.
    • Remove peel off the skin. A towel will help, or a fork. Discard the skin.
    • Slice off the stem and give the jalapeño a rough chop. Toss it into a food processor with all of the ingredients and process until the dip is nice and smooth.
    • Spread the Black Bean Dip into a serving bowl and top it with chopped green herbs, crumbly white cheese and spicy chili flakes, if desired.
    • Serve it up with Mission Strips Tortilla Chips!
