Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoon cumin, ground
  • 2 teaspoon coriander, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper, black ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, Kosher
  • 1 pounds chicken tenders
  • 3 teaspoon oil, canola, divided
  • 1 small onion(s), chopped
  • 1 medium pepper(s), jalapeno, chopped
  • 30 ounce(s) beans, white, 2 15-ounce cans, rinsed
  • 3/4 cup(s) tomatoes, canned, diced, with green chilies, or tomato salsa
  • 1/4 cup(s) cheese, Monterey Jack, or Cheddar cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Combine cumin, coriander, pepper and salt in a medium bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat.

Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute until golden brown and just cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.


Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the pan. Add onion and jalapeño and cook until beginning to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes (or salsa) and any accumulated juices from the chicken; cook, stirring often, until heated through, about 3 minutes.

Transfer the bean mixture to a medium bowl and mash with a potato masher until creamy but still slightly chunky. Stir in cheese. Serve with the chicken
