Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat.
- Mix the oil, chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl to make a paste. Pound the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap to about 1/2-inch thick. Rub the chicken all over with the chili paste.
- Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken until firm to the touch and cooked through, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then shred the meat into bite-size pieces or cut into strips. Warm the tortillas on the grill and wrap in a kitchen towel to stay warm.
- Serve the chicken tacos with shredded cheese, pickled jalapenos, shredded lettuce and/or salsa for topping.
GRILLED CHICKEN TACOS
Chicken breasts aren't the only cut sold skinless and boneless. Thighs are, too. They're fattier than breasts, which means they're more flavorful; plus, they're less expensive. Put them to work in any fast weeknight preparation, starting with these spiced tacos.

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.
