Instructions
Remove any skin and excess fat from chicken pieces. Cut chicken into ½-inch cubes.
Rinse, peel, and finely chop onion. Peel and mince garlic.
Rinse tomato. Remove core and seeds. Chop.
Rinse lime. Cut in half. In a small bowl, squeeze juice from one half. Discard seeds.
Rinse and chop cilantro and basil.
In a colander, drain and rinse beans.
In a large pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and garlic. Cook until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. If onion or garlic start to brown, lower heat.
Add chicken, beans, broth, spices, tomato, lime juice, basil, and cilantro. Stir. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
If using, top with red pepper flakes.
