📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prepare the chicken

Place the chicken on a sheet tray and evenly coat it with salt on both sides. In a mortar & pestle, add the spices and grind them together. Heavily season the chicken with the spices on both sides.
Salt, 5 g
3
Sear the chicken
4
Set a griddle over high heat. Add a drizzle of oil. Once it’s hot, add the chicken and let it sear until well browned on each side. Check the temp to make sure they reach 165°F/74°C. While the chicken sears, start making the beans.

Set a pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil. Add the jalapeños and garlic to the pan and let them toast for several minutes. Add the beans to the skillet and bring them to a simmer. As the liquid evaporates, half-mash the beans with a masher or spoon. Take the beans off the heat and add the juice from half of a lime.
