How to make it
- Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Stir in the red onion, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until onion is tender, stirring often, about 5 minutes.
- Put the chicken in a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the cooked onion mixture, 1 teaspoon of the lime peel, 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss to mix well. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile make a salsa. Place the remaining cooked onion mixture in a medium serving bowl. Stir in the beans, tomatoes (and the juice from one can of tomatoes), cilantro, and hot sauce to taste, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon lime peel and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Stir to mix well. Cover and refrigerate salsa until ready to serve.
- Heat a barbecue grill to medium-hot. Remove the chicken from its marinade; toss leftover marinade. Grill the chicken, turning once, until browned and cooked through (170°F on an instant-read thermometer), about 10 minutes.
- Serve the grilled chicken topped with the salsa.
