Cowboy Beans in Twenty Minutes
Frijoles Charros (Cowboy Beans) is a rustic, soupy stew of pinto beans, simmered in a flavorful tomato sauce with bacon and chile. An authentic Mexican dish, it gets its name from the traditional Mexican horsemen called charros, who cooked their frijoles a la charra on the range, over an open fire.
Here we create the same delicious effect much more quickly, with tender, canned GOYA® Pinto Beans. Enjoy this chipotle-spiced, open-air feast at your own table tonight!
