Jerk Chicken Casserole

This one from the Betty Crocker website.
It was delicious!

1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained, rinsed
1 large sweet potato (1 lb), peeled, cubed (3 cups)
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup lime juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons sliced green onions (2 medium)

Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 8-inch square (2-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix salt, pumpkin pie spice, allspice, thyme and red pepper. Rub mixture on all sides of chicken. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 2 to 3 minutes per side, until brown.
In baking dish, layer beans and sweet potato. Top with browned chicken. In small bowl, mix honey, lime juice and cornstarch; add to skillet. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Pour over chicken in baking dish.
