Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
4 (7 inch) corn tortillas

MEXICAN CHICKEN AND BLACK BEAN SALAD



Mexican Chicken and Black Bean Salad image

I call this diet haters' diet food because simple substitutions mean you won't feel deprived. You shouldn't miss the tortilla chips because you have delicious black beans instead, and you still get the yummy spicy Mexican flavor and cheese. While not necessarily authentic, this salad is easy to make! If you have time, it's is also wonderful topped with onions and maybe fresh jalapenos.
