Place the egg in a small pot of water, bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat for 9 minutes; rinse in cold water and peel.
While the egg cooks, steam or blanch the green beans in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender, then plunge into ice water to preserve the snap.
Season the chicken breast with half the salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then sear in a pan over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side until golden.
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, and remaining spices to create a bright vinaigrette.
Slice the cooked chicken and the hard-boiled egg into bite-sized pieces.
Toss the chicken, black beans, and green beans in the dressing, then top with the sliced egg and fresh cilantro.
