Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Filling

  • 2 pieces chicken breasts, finely diced Ensure cooked thoroughly.
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil For cooking chicken.
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp minced fresh ginger

For the Slaw

  • 1 bag coleslaw mix
  • 4 pieces green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil For slaw dressing.
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce For slaw dressing.
  • 1 tbsp honey Adjust sweetness to taste.

For Assembly

  • 16 pieces wonton wrappers Store-bought recommended.
  • Sweet chili sauce for serving

  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the back of a muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Drape wonton wrappers over the inverted muffin cups to form taco shells. Bake for 5-7 minutes until crisp and golden.

Cooking the Filling

  • In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the diced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until it’s no longer pink.
  • Stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is glazed.

Making the Slaw

  • In a bowl, mix the coleslaw, green onions, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and honey until everything is well coated.

Assembly

  • Fill the wonton shells with the chicken mixture. Top with coleslaw, sweet chili sauce, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
  • Serve immediately for the best crunch!

Notes

If you have leftovers, store chicken and slaw separately from the wonton shells. Reheat chicken and slaw before filling shells again. Adjust sweetness of the slaw with honey based on taste.
