  1. 1

    Cook the Fettuccine

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

    Prepare the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add minced garlic and chopped jalapeños. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add halved cherry tomatoes and black beans, then cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.
