Main Ingredients
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 2/3 cup barbecue sauce divided
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes chopped
- 1/3 cup red onion chopped
- 15 ounce black or pinto beans rinsed and drained
- 15 ounce corn drained
- 1 whole avocado peeled, cored and sliced
- 12 corn tortillas or small flour tortillas
Creamy Cilantro Lime Sauce
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Add chicken and ⅓ cup bbq sauce to a ziplock bag. Refrigerate for 1-3 hours.
Make the creamy cilantro lime sauce by combining all ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Preheat grill and lightly grease with cooking spray. Add chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, flipping once, until cooked through (165 degrees F).
Remove to a cutting board, baste with more BBQ sauce, and allow to rest for 5 minutes before chopping or shredding.
Warm tortillas on grill or in a hot skillet. Add a spoonful of chopped chicken, corn, black beans, tomatoes and avocado to each warm tortilla. Drizzle with extra bbq sauce, and cilantro lime sauce. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
