Yummy! I subbed tortilla chips for the corn tortillas and cooked the chicken on a George Foreman grill. I didn't have cilantro but I did have "Zesty Cilantro Salsa" which worked well. I also added 1 lg. chopped tomato to the bean mixture and served it with chips as a salsa. The flavor of the chicken was great even though I didn't have coriander. I am saving this recipe!
We loved this! I did make some changes though. I cut my chicken in half lengtwise in order to have more surface for the rub. I made the rub (omitting the cayenne for my kids) and let them sit for about 10 hours in the fridge. I grilled the chicken sliced it and served on a bed of romaine topped with black beans salsa sour cream the chicken and a little bit of cheese. The end result was very good healthy satisfying fare that even my kids enjoyed (after topping theirs with ranch instead of sour cream!)
Nom, Nom! This recipe was easy to prepare and delicious. I used leftover shredded chicken and added a 1/2 can of corn and chopped tomato to the beans.
I made this with some left over chicken from Costco one breast anf one thigh and drumstick cut up added more salsa to the bean mixture about 1 cup I think and then layered the beans and then the chicken in Tortilla's covered with cheddar cheese and enchilada sauce. baked in a 350' oven for 30 minutes. Very good! Oh yeah omit the lettuce!
Only made the grilled chicken portion. Put in a tortilla with cilantro rice and black beans. Fantastic! My whole family loved it.
This was great and we put it all in baked flour tortilla bowls. My husband especially LOVED the black bean with cilantro and salsa mix. We use fat-free yogurt with our mexi-dishes instead of sour cream and it gives it an awesome zing so we added that to the salad too. Looked pretty and tasted yummy!
I love a good Southwest style taco salad but this one wasn t my cup of tea. It only has two flavors chili powder and lime(or cilantro) all of which were overpowering. Granted it was easy to make for a quick last minute meal idea. If I had to do it over I would start with a good homemade black bean salsa made with fresh ingredients and garlic.
I have used allrecipes.com for over a year and I have found some pretty good recipes but this one is one of my favorites and its the first one that I've left a review for. The bean and salsa mixture is delicious. The rub for the chicken gave it a good flavor and I really liked how the seasoning mixture stayed on the chicken while it was cooking on the grill. I didn't have any coriander so I made it w/o I looking forward to trying it with the coriander.
This was very good! I followed the recipe pretty closely with the exception of using ready-to-eat tostada shells but next time I really want to try grilling the tortillas as the recipe states. I cut the cayenne pepper in half to accommodate young eaters and the flavor was still very good especially combined with the salsa/bean mixture. In fact there was so much flavor that we didn't even miss the cheese on these!! Thanks for sharing this recipe MTCHYG!
