Golden Chicken with Spicy Refried Beans


Stuff you need
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound chicken tenders
3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1 small onion, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
2 (15 ounce) cans white beans, rinsed
3/4 cup diced tomatoes with green chiles or tomato salsa
1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese


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

2.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.

3.Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the pan. Add onion and jalapeno 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
