Preparation

  1. Preheat broiler, if using. Wash and dry the chicken, and rub the breasts on both sides with cumin and coriander.
  2. Rinse and drain the beans.
  3. Turn on the food processor, and put garlic through feed tube. Wash, trim and seed the chili, add as much as you like to the food processor and process until finely chopped. Chop the tomatillos. Wash and chop the cilantro. Chop the onion and the green pepper.
  4. To the garlic and chili in the food processor add the beans, tomatillos, cilantro, onion, green pepper, lime juice, salt and pepper, and process until mixture is pureed.

  6. Heat the bean puree in a pot slowly until warm.
  7. Place the bean puree in the middle of each of two dinner plates. Place the chicken on top, and top with mango salsa.
