  • 1 poblano pepper roasted and chopped

Remaining Layers

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degress.
  • Cut the poblano in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Once the oven comes to temperature, roast the pepper on a sheet pan with a drizzle of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste for 10 minutes or until tender and slightly charred.
    1 poblano pepper
  • Meanwhile, prepare the bean layer. Saute the onion, garlic and spices together in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Once onions are soft (approximately 7 minutes), add the drained beans and saute for another 5 minutes.
    2 cans black beans
  • Once the mixture is cooled slightly, add to a food processor, and puree until smooth. Then add it to the bottom of your clear glass serving dish as the first layer of your dip. Spread it evenly with an offset spatula or the back of a spoon so it looks pretty.

  • Meanwhile, let the poblano pepper cool until it’s cool enough to handle and cut into a large dice.
  • Once the pepper is ready, add it to a medium bowl with the corn, diced red onion and cilantro. Mix together with olive and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Reserve.

  • Mix sour cream together with lime zest and dried spices.
  • Halve the avocados, remove the pits and scoop out of the flesh into a bowl, squeeze the juice of the limes, add salt and pepper to taste, and mash the potato masher.
    2 avocados
  • On top of the black bean puree, add the guacamole layer and smooth it out with the offset spatula.
