- Place the chicken in the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

- Remove the chicken from the pan; place on a plate and cover with foil.
- Add the remaining teaspoon of oil to the pan and add the red onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until onion is tender. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Stir in the black beans and corn. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until corn is heated through. Add Tastic spice to taste. Turn off heat and stir in lime juice.
- Return the chicken to the pan; place on top of the corn and bean mixture. Spoon reserved salsa over the chicken and serve. Garnish with lime wedges and cilantro leaves if desired.
