EL POLLO LOCO CHICKEN/RICE BOWL

I'm crazier about black beans than pintos so I think I'd change that out. And the Serrano chile, I think I'd sub a jalapeno for that. Oh, to the rice...I'd add a handful of sauted onions, too. What I'm saying, make it your own. The prep time includes the marinade time.
