Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Poblano Sauce

    Roast the poblano peppers over an open flame or in a broiler until charred. Place them in a plastic bag to steam for 10 minutes. Remove the skins, seeds, and stems. In a blender, combine the roasted poblanos, garlic, onion, olive oil, chicken broth, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Heat the Sauce

    In a saucepan, heat the poblano sauce over medium heat until warmed through.

  4. 4

    Cook the Rice and Beans

    Cook the rice according to package instructions. Heat the black beans in a small saucepan until warmed through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Place the grilled chicken on a plate, generously drizzle with the poblano sauce, and serve with a side of rice, black beans, and warm tortillas.
