Marinated and grilled chicken is layered with an Asian slaw mix, snow peas, mandarin oranges with a tangy ginger-chile-garlic dressing.

Dressing:
1/2 cup Splenda® Granulated No Calorie Sweetener
3 tablespoons Chinese chile garlic paste
1/3 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1/4 cup light soy sauce
3/4 cup rice vinegar

Garnish:
2 cups chow mein noodles

Cooking Directions:
1 – Mix Splenda® Granulated Sweetener, chile garlic paste, light mayonnaise and ginger together in a medium mixing bowl. Stir well. Add soy sauce and rice vinegar. Mix until well blended.
2 – Pour 1/4 cup of dressing in a small bowl. Place chicken breasts in bowl, tossing to coat. Marinate in refrigerator 45 to 60 minutes.
3 – Place remaining dressing in a small saucepan. Set aside. Mix together cornstarch and water in a small bowl until cornstarch is dissolved. Pour cornstarch mixture into dressing while stirring constantly. Place pan on medium-high heat. Boil dressing over medium-high heat approximately 2 minutes, while stirring constantly.

Baja Blast Turkey Tacos
Featuring shredded turkey, avocado, jalapeno and more, these Baja Blast Turkey Tacos are perfected with a Thai Chili Garlic Sauce. The best part, this recipe uses cheese taco shells, making it keto diet friendly.

Total Time – 30 Minutes
Serving Size – Makes 4 Servings

Ingredients
1-1/3 – cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 – (17.6-ounce) package JENNIE-O® Turkey Breast Cutlets
1 – avocado, diced
1/4 – cup minced jalapeno pepper

Directions
1.) Heat oven to 375°F. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide cheese into 4 mounds on parchment paper spreading each into a 5-inch circle. Be sure to leave some space between each circle as they will expand a bit as they melt. Bake 5 minutes, rotate the tray in the oven, and bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until the edges are beginning to brown very slightly and the cheese takes on a lace-like appearance. Let the cheese circles cool a few minutes, and while still pliable, peel them from the parchment, and hang them over a wooden spoon that is held between two jars. Let the cheese hang until hardened and completely cooled into the shape of a taco shell.
