¹⁄₃	cup	coconut oil or lard
2	medium	onions
4	large	sweet potatoes
1 ¹⁄₂	cups	leftover cooked chicken
1	cup	prepared salsa
1	teaspoon	ground cumin
	pinch	cayenne
¹⁄₂	teaspoon	garlic powder
1	can	(or 1.5 cups precooked) black beans
5		green onions sliced thin
		salt to taste

Place a 12" cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil or lard. Dice onions and sweet potatoes into 1/2" chunks while the skillet and fat heat up. Add the onions to the hot pan, followed by the sweet potatoes. Season with salt and cook, 10-15 minutes, or until tender. If they begin to brown too much you can place a lid on the pan and turn the heat down to low until the sweet potatoes are tender.

Stir in chicken, salsa, cumin, cayenne, garlic powder, and beans (if using). Cook, stirring frequently, until all ingredients are heated through. Taste and add salt as necessary. Sprinkle over green onions and serve.
