Remove from heat. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve immediately.
For a richer flavor, sauté the onion and garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil before adding the beans.
A squeeze of fresh lime juice at the end brightens the flavors and adds a zesty touch.
Feel free to experiment with other spices, such as cumin, smoked paprika, or chili powder, to create your own unique flavor profile.
These black beans are also delicious served as a topping for tacos, nachos, or salads.
