  • 1 tbsp lime juice

  1. 01Soak the dried black beans in water overnight. Simmer in fresh water for about 45 to 60 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.

  3. 03Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until deeply charred and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) measured with a meat thermometer.
  4. 04Transfer chicken to a board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
  5. 05In a bowl, combine diced roma tomato, minced red onion, chopped cilantro, grated ginger, lime juice, and the remaining salt to make fresh salsa.
  6. 06Assemble the bowl with warm black beans as the base, top with sliced chicken, and spoon tomato-ginger salsa generously over top. Serve immediately.
