Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 large poblano or green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 large red onion, chopped
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 15.5-ounce cans black beans, rinsed, or 1 heaping cup dried black beans, soaked and cooked
- 1 12-ounce bottle lager beer
- 3 to 4 jalapeños, halved and seeded
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Directions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the poblano, garlic, all but ⅓ cup of the onion, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper.

- In a small bowl, toss the jalapeños with the cilantro, lime juice, remaining ⅓ cup onion and 2 teaspoons oil, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Serve with the soup.
