Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup fresh or frozen corn
1 cup canned black beans drained and rinsed
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 chicken breasts trimmed
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup pico de gallo or salsa
1 cup pepper jack cheese
cilantro to garnish
sour cream optional
guacamole optional

Instructions

Pull off 4 sheets of heavy-duty tin foil (8-10) inches and layer to create two packets. Lightly mist with cooking spray.
Stir together the corn, black beans, and cumin. Divide between two foil packets. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place 1 on each packet. Top with pico de gallo and cheese.
Fold up the sides of the foil and seal tightly. Cook on hot coals or on a grill over medium low heat for 20-30 minutes or until the temperature off the chicken reaches 165 degrees. Make sure to turn several times to avoid burning.
Top with fresh cilantro, sour cream, and guacamole before serving.
