- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 ounces turkey bacon, finely chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 4 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
- 4 cups chicken broth
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir bacon, onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper in hot oil until the onion is caramelized, about 20 minutes.
- Stir garlic, chipotle pepper, and cumin into the bacon mixture; cook until the garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour black beans and chicken broth into the pot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the beans are tender, about 30 minutes.
- Mash some of the beans with a potato masher until the soup reaches your desired consistency.
