Black Bean-Goat Cheese Dip
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 2 clove garlic
- 1 1/2 tsp. cumin (preferably whole seeds, freshly toasted and ground)
- 2 can black beans
- 1 c. chicken stock
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 large poblano peppers
- 1 bunch scallions
- 1/2 c. coarsely chopped cilantro
- 1 log fresh goat cheese
- 6 whole-grain tortillas
- In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in cumin and cook 30 seconds.
- Add 1 can beans and lightly mash using a potato masher.
- Stir in chicken stock and remaining can of beans.
- Simmer until very thick (but not pasty), 5-7 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Let cool.
- Meanwhile, place poblano peppers directly on a burner over a medium-low gas flame.
- Turn regularly with tongs to blacken skin, 10-15 minutes (if you don't have a gas stove, you can blacken peppers on a sheet pan under a broiler, turning regularly, about 15 minutes).
- Place peppers in a paper bag; seal and let sit (and steam) until cool enough to handle.
- Peel peppers, removing as much of the charred skin as possible without rinsing.
- Seed and coarsely chop.
- Transfer to a small bowl and toss with scallions and cilantro.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In the bottom of a 1- to 1 1/2-quart souffle or baking dish, spread half of bean mixture.
- Top with half of cheese, crumbled, and half of pepper mixture.
- Repeat layering once more, ending on pepper mixture.
- Place dish on a sheet pan and bake 30-35 minutes, until top is bubbling.
- Meanwhile, arrange tortilla wedges on a large baking sheet in a single layer.
- Place in oven with dip and bake 10-12 minutes or until crisp.
- Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt, if desired.
- Serve hot with tortilla chips on the side.
