1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth

Saute until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes.
6
Put the chicken back in the pan.

Scatter the sweet potatoes and black beans around the chicken.

Pour the broth in the pan, then cover and cook until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160F, 15-20 minutes.
9
Meanwhile, prep the lime and cilantro. Just before you serve the chicken, stir the zest, juice and cilantro into the pan.
