chilies
About 1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Drain beans, put them in a large pot and barely cover with fresh water.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer. Mix spices, herbs, seasonings and
flour. Toss so the meat is evenly coated with spices; set aside.Heat 1
tablespoon of the oil in a skillet and saute onion and celery 6 minutes. Add
vegetables to the beans. Heat remaining tablespoon of oil in a
skillet and cook chicken, turning often, until all sides are lightly browned
 Add chicken to beans with the chicken stock and chilies. Simmer
until the beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours total, adding water or chicken
stock, if needed. Add salt to taste and adjust seasonings. Add cilantro just
before serving.
