2 tsp cumin
2 tbsp fresh oregano, chopped (or sub 1 tsp dried if needed)
3 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped (only fresh or frozen, not dried !)
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 lb pork, cut into 1 inch pieces (i buy pre-cut stew pork)

Directions:

Prepare yellow rice according to package directions.
To prepare the black beans, combine the first seven ingredients in a medium saucepan.
