Directions

Step 1

Toss chicken with 2 tbsp (30 mL) barbecue sauce in large bowl. Place skin-side down on grill preheated to medium-high. Cook with lid closed, about 15 min. Turn chicken pieces over. Cook about another 10 min until chicken is cooked through, or instant-read thermometer registers 165°F (74°C) in thickest part of chicken. Remove from grill.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in large serving bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil and cumin. Add black beans, red pepper, onion and cilantro. Set aside.

Step 3

Remove and discard skin and bones from chicken. Shred meat; mix with remaining 2 tbsp (30 mL) barbecue sauce.

Step 4

Toss spinach with bean mixture. Divide onto 4 plates. Top with chicken mixture and garnish with extra cilantro. For added flavour, serve topped with sliced avocado, shredded pepper jack cheese and crushed tortilla chips.

Tip

Substitute 2 cups (500 mL) leftover cooked chicken or turkey for chicken thighs.
