Method
Preparation of Chicken

Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Add the chicken breasts and coat evenly. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Grill the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Heat the Beans
In a small saucepan, combine the canned black beans (drained and rinsed), cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
