1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 8 ounces total), cut into 1-inch pieces
3 eggs, well beaten
1 cup tortilla chips, crushed
3 tablespoons canola oil
Black Bean Cake
1/2 cup canned black beans, washed and drained
1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
1 egg
1 tablespoon flour

1/2 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Assembly
4 cherry tomatoes

8 green olives
For the chicken, in a shallow dish, mix together flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Gently toss the chicken pieces in the flour mixture. Dip the chicken into the beaten egg and roll in tortilla chips. Heat oil on medium-high in a large sauté pan. Add chicken and fry about 10 minutes, turning frequently.
For the black bean cake, mix together all ingredients in a large bowl. Place in an 8- by 8-inch baking pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes. Let cool at least 3 hours. Cut into 2-inch squares.
For the avocado sauce, place ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
To assemble skewers, cut tomatoes in half and wrap with lettuce and spinach leaves. Thread a wrapped tomato half on a skewer. Add a chicken piece, a black bean square and an olive. Repeat until skewer is filled. Repeat for 3 other skewers.
Drizzle with avocado sauce.
Makes 4 skewers.
