There are some nights when cooking from scratch just isn’t realistic, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor. On busy days, I love picking up a rotisserie chicken on the way home from work and turning it into a complete meal with a few fresh ingredients. This recipe is all about making convenience feel gourmet—crispy seared chicken pieces, smoky black beans with a squeeze of lime, fluffy jasmine rice, and a bright cilantro chimichurri that ties it all together.
