Method
- 1
Warm the avocado oil in a deep 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes until shimmering.
- 2
Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes to begin browning the edges.
- 3
Add the water to the skillet, immediately cover tightly with a lid, and reduce heat to medium-low; steam undisturbed for 7 minutes until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
- 4
Remove the lid, return the heat to medium, and stir in the garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 5
Pour in the cooked black beans and salsa, folding gently to coat the sweet potatoes, and simmer uncovered for 3 minutes until bubbling and hot throughout.
- 6
Scatter the shredded white cheddar cheese evenly across the top, cover with the lid, and cook over low heat for 2 minutes until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly.
- 7
Remove from the heat and let rest uncovered for 1 minute before serving directly from the warm skillet.
Leftovers keep well in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; reheat gently in a covered skillet over medium-low heat with a splash of water.
