Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
¾ cup medium-hot salsa
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon brown sugar
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
4 (7 inch) corn tortillas
4 cups shredded lettuce
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and sliced
1 lime, cut into wedges
¼ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Mix black beans, salsa, 1/2 cup cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl; set aside.
  • Stir chili powder, cumin, coriander, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, and olive oil in a bowl until smooth; rub mixture over chicken breasts.
  • Cook chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes per side.

While the chicken is cooking, place tortillas on grill and grill until lightly brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
