Steps:
- Place first 8 ingredients in a large zip lock back and combine thoroughly. Add the chicken breasts and mix until the breasts are evenly coated. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for 2-4 hours.
- Peel and chop the mango. Rinse and drain the black beans. Chop the green onions, jalapeno and cilantro. In a small bowl, combine the lime juice and cumin until well mixed. Place the mango, black beans, green onions, cilantro, and jalapeno in a large bowl. Pour the lime/cumin mixture over and mix gently. Taste - add more lime juice if needed.
- Grill chicken breasts until thoroughly cooked. Let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing into thin slices. Place the corn tortillas in a panini grill for 30 seconds (or cook them in a dry skillet on each side for 45-60 seconds). Layer the warmed tortilla with sour cream, sliced chicken, cotija cheese, mango and black bean salsa. Serve with a side of guacamole and salsa. Enjoy.

Steps:
- Cook chicken until done. Add salsa. Drain beans in a colander and add corn. Run hot water over them to thaw corn and rinse beans. Drain well. Add beans and corn to pan. Mix well and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Spoon into taco shells and garnish with sour cream, cheese, lettuce, olives, or tomato. We like to crunch up corn chips into a bowl and make it into a taco salad.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh black beans, chicken, and vegetables will give your tacos the best flavor.
- Season your chicken well. A simple combination of chili powder, cumin, and salt will do the trick.
- Don't overcook the chicken. The chicken should be cooked through but still juicy.
- Use a variety of toppings. Shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa are all great options.
- Serve the tacos immediately. Tacos are best when they're hot and fresh.
