1. In a heavy medium saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ground chili, masa, tomato paste, cumin, oregano, brown sugar, Maggi, and beef broth. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the sauce, partially covered, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Reserve in the pan, off heat. (Sauce can be made ahead to this point. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.)
2. Prepare a hot fire in an outdoor grill, or heat an oven broiler or stovetop grill pan. Brush the chicken with the remaining tablespoon of oil, and season with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Grill the chicken turning frequently once or twice, about 4 to 5 minutes per side or until no longer pink inside at the thickest part and firm to the touch.
3. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the zucchini, corn, red pepper, and remaining salt. Cook, tossing, until sizzling and heated through, about 2 minutes. Reheat the sauce.
4. To serve, put a chicken breast in the center of each of 4 plates. Spoon the chili sauce over the chicken, and let it pool onto the plate. Scatter the heated vegetables over the top. Sprinkle with cilantro.
