In a bowl, combine all Chicken ingredients and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
While chicken marinates, prepare the Sauce by combining all Sauce ingredients in a separate bowl and whisking until smooth.
Grill or pan-fry the chicken until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Let cool slightly and dice or slice.
Roast the corn in a dry skillet until lightly charred.
In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken, Black beans, Roasted Corn, Red onion, Avocado, and Cilantro.
Pour the Sauce over the chicken mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Divide the Romaine lettuce among plates and top with the chicken salad. Garnish with Tortilla strips. Serve immediately.
