Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In shallow bowl, mix taco seasoning mix and oregano. Brush chicken with oil; sprinkle with taco seasoning mixture.
• Place chicken on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 10 to 15 minutes, turning once, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (170°F).
• Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, mix barbecue sauce, chili sauce and cumin. Cover; microwave on High 30 to 60 seconds or until hot. Serve sauce over chicken.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Toss onion, garlic, chicken, cumin, oil, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Grill onion and chicken until cooked through and lightly charred, about 4 minutes per side.
• Let chicken rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with tortillas, avocados, Charred Tomatillo Salsa Verde, cilantro, radishes, and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the plums, nectarines, onions and jalapenos with 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Toss the chicken with the chipotle powder, oregano, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the remaining tablespoon oil.
• Grill the fruit mixture, turning occasionally, until the fruit is slightly softened and charred in places and the onions are slightly charred and crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Grill the chicken, turning once, until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes per side, and then transfer to a cutting board.
• Place the jalapeno and half of the onions in a blender with 2 tablespoons water and blend until smooth. Add about two-thirds of the fruit to the blender and pulse until slightly chunky. Transfer the salsa to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
• Chop the chicken and the remaining fruit and onions into bite-size pieces. Serve the chicken and fruit mixture in the tortillas topped with the salsa, shredded lettuce and cilantro sprigs.

• Mix the oil, chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl to make a paste. Pound the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap to about 1/2-inch thick. Rub the chicken all over with the chili paste.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken until firm to the touch and cooked through, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then shred the meat into bite-size pieces or cut into strips. Warm the tortillas on the grill and wrap in a kitchen towel to stay warm.
