Grilled Chicken Tostadas


Ingredients
4  (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1  tablespoon  fresh lime juice
1  tablespoon  40% less-sodium taco seasoning (such as Old El Paso)
1/2  teaspoon  sugar
Cooking spray
6  (8-inch) flour tortillas
6  cups  packaged coleslaw
1  (7-ounce) can green salsa
4  cups  chopped tomato
1/4  cup  sliced ripe olives, chopped
1 1/4  cups  fat-free refried beans
1/2  cup queso fresco (or other Mexican cheese)
6  tablespoons  reduced-fat sour cream
1/4  cup  fresh cilantro leaves
1/4  cup  unsalted pumpkinseed kernels, toasted (optional)

Prepare grill, or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Brush chicken with juice; sprinkle with seasoning and sugar. Place chicken on grill rack or grill pan coated with cooking spray; grill 4 minutes on each side or until chicken is done. Cool slightly. Cut chicken into 1/4-inch strips; set aside. Place tortillas on grill rack or grill pan coated with cooking spray; grill 30 seconds on each side or until golden brown.

Combine coleslaw and salsa; toss to coat. Combine tomato and olives; toss gently.

Spread about 3 tablespoons beans over each tortilla; divide chicken evenly among tortillas. Top each serving with about 2/3 cup slaw mixture, 2/3 cup tomato mixture, 4 teaspoons cheese, 1 tablespoon sour cream, and 2 teaspoons cilantro. Sprinkle each serving with 2 teaspoons pumpkinseeds, if desired.
