Boil 5 eggs and set aside to cool in cold water for easy peeling.

In a nonstick pan, brown 1 pound of ground beef without oil using a potato masher to break it apart.

Once the ground beef is browned, turn the heat to low to prevent burning while preparing the chicken.

Squeeze half a lemon over the chicken to clean it.

Season the chicken with powdered ricado, salt, and black pepper, applying some under the skin.

Return to the ground beef, turning the heat back to medium.

Add diced onions and cilantro to the ground beef, mixing well.

Add a little water to the ground beef as it cooks, ensuring it doesn't dry out, and cook for at least 40 minutes.

After 40 minutes, check the consistency of the ground beef to ensure it's not too dry or too watery, adding a sprinkle of salt and black pepper if needed.

Peel and dice the boiled eggs and mix them into the ground beef once it's cooled slightly.

Prepare a large pot for cooking the chicken with the ground beef mixture inside.
