Directions
Brown the sausage or pork and onions. Chop chili fine - don't touch your eyes and wash hands well. Mash 1/2 of the black beans into 1/2 of the chicken broth to a thick soup consistency. Put everything together in a big pot and simmer for 1-2 hours. Longer is better for flavor - cook down if you like a thicker sauce.

Serve over meat on rice on a bed of salad greens. Garnish with chives or cilantro.

Add 2 cups brown rice to the correct amount of chicken broth as directed on the package. Add basil and oregano if desired.

When 20 minutes are left, heat your frying pan to a high heat and sear both sides of your filet s, chops or chicken breasts. When they are browned, throw in the fresh spices (it is not necessary to remove twigs and stems as you will leave those in the pan when serving), cover the pan with a tight lid, and turn the heat off. Allow the residual heat to cook the interior of the meat - DO NOT raise the lid until the time is up. You may need to increase browning time if you have piece of meat more than 1" thick. Meat will be about medium rare and juicy.
