bowl. Return the stock/bean broth mixture to the fire and cook down
until almost syrupy. Pour it over the beans and reserve. Season to

Preheat an oven to 400 degrees.
Cut a pocket in the underside of the chicken and spoon the mofongo
into it. Cover the pocket back up and season the breast with some of
the spice rub.
Combine the flour and cornmeal with the salt and pepper and dredge
the four breasts in that. Set aside.
Heat the black bean sauce back up and keep warm.
Heat a large heavy skillet and then add some peanut oil into it. Begin
cooking the breasts, skin side down. Allow to get crisp on each side.
Now place the skillet into the oven and cook approximately 10
minutes. Remove and allow to rest for a moment. Return the black
beans to high heat and season with a touch of the rub, to taste. Now
place about 3 to 4 ounces of the bean sauce onto 4 warm plates.
Center the chicken on top of the sauce. Serve.

Note: A warm fruit chutney is a nice addition to this dish.
