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. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). While the chicken is cooking, place tortillas on grill and grill until lightly brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to a cutting board and slice into long thin strips. Divide chicken strips over tortillas and top with bean mixture, lettuce, and remaining 1/2 cup cilantro. Serve with avocado, lime wedges, and sour cream.
