Grilled Chicken with Black Bean Salsa image

Black bean salsa with mango gives this dish a Mexican taste without too much heat. I like to slice the chicken and serve it over a long grain and wild rice mix. -Terri Clouse, Connoquenessing, Pennsylvania

I substituted black beans for kidney beans in the salsa, and it turned out great.

The grilled chicken was a bit dry for my taste, but the salsa was delicious.
