Ingredients
5C mayacoba beans4 Chicken Breasts w/o skin1C Split Peas1/3C canola oil1 bulb Garlic (12 cloves)2 medium yellow onions4 Habanero Peppers, with seeds12 Serrano peppers, with seeds5T ground cumin3T Turmeric, ground
Directions
1. Prep the yellow beans (soak, or boil then let sit for an hour)
2. Chop the onions, peel, crush, and finely chop the garlic bulb, and dice the peppers (I suggest using rubber gloves for this, so you don't dab it into your eye later.
3. Cut the chicken into 1" cubes.
4. Heat the oil, then add onions, garlic, and spices.
When the onions start sweating, add the cubed chicken and stir briskly, browning them (I wouldn't spend more than a minute or so on that).
5. Add the mayacoba beans (without water), and stir everything up for a minute.
6. Add 8C water (or enough to cover + 4"), cover.
7. When it starts boiling, add the peppers, then recover.
8. When it comes to a boil, reduce to medium simmer for 40 minutes.
9. Add split peas and bring to a boil again, then bring back down to a simmer and recover for another 30 minutes.
10. Start checking every 10 minutes for the split peas to be firm, but not hard. When they are, reduce to a very low simmer and uncover.
11. Stir every 5 minutes until it's at your desired thickness.

done.
