These can either be cooked on a hot grill or in a frying pan, cook until no pink remains (about 10 minutes or so) flipping to cook evenly.
Refined Black Beans:
While the Chicken is marinating, chop up 1/2 an onion, in a heated pot add olive oil and cook onion until translucent, add in garlic and cook for another minute or so. Add in the drained & strained Black beans, lime juice, spices and salt & pepper. Cook together on low heat until warmed through. You can leave your beans whole or mash them up a but with an immersion blender or a potato masher or even a fork.
