'Anything Goes' Easy Black Beans - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
    1 cup chicken broth, or more to taste, divided
    1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 onion, diced
    1 green bell pepper, diced
    1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
    2 cloves garlic, or more to taste, minced
    1 teaspoon white sugar
    1 dash chipotle-flavored hot sauce, or more to taste
Preparation
    Stir black beans, 1 cup chicken broth, tomato paste, and cumin together in a heavy pot over low heat; cook at a simmer until hot, 5 to 10 minutes.
    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion, green bell pepper, and jalapeno pepper in hot oil until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes; add garlic and continue cooking just until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to the pot with the beans and stir.
    Stir sugar into the bean mixture, adding more chicken broth if you want more liquid in the final product; season with hot sauce and continue cooking at a simmer until the vegetables impart a savory flavor to the broth, 10 to 15 minutes.
