Cooking steps
1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomato. Drain pineapple and roughly chop. Zest and quarter lime.

2
  • In a medium bowl, combine scallion whites, tomato, pineapplelime zest, juice from half the limesalt, and pepper.

  • Set aside until ready to serve.

3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Stir in beans and their liquid, stock concentrate, and half the Cuban Spice Blend (you'll use the rest in the next step). Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat. (The beans will thicken more as they cool.)

  • Using a potato masher or fork, mash beans until mostly smooth. Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) until combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  • Keep beans covered off heat until ready to serve.

4
  • While beans cook, open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; season with remaining Cuban Spice Blend and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. 

5
  • Place sour cream in a small bowl. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels. Microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.

6
  • Divide tortillas between plates. Fill with chicken and black beans (if beans have too much liquid, use a slotted spoon). Top with pineapple salsa (draining first), crema, and scallion greens. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
