Note
Serving this dish directly in the skillet helps keep it warm longer during meals.
For best results, use a cast-iron skillet if you have one, as it retains heat well and adds a rustic presentation.
This dish can be served as a snack, light supper, or as a full dinner buffet. It pairs well with warmed flour tortillas for a complete meal.
Feel free to adjust the amount of sour cream and extra picante sauce to suit your taste preferences.
You can substitute black beans for pinto beans, or use a combination of both for variety.
