Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos

Print Recipe

Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos mix crunchy wonton shells with savory chicken and fresh slaw, creating a bright, sweet, and a little spicy snack or light meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (divided)
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 12 wonton wrappers
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Marinate chicken with teriyaki sauce, 1/2 tbsp sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium. Add the marinated chicken and cook until done, about 5–7 minutes. Stir so pieces cook evenly.
  3. In a bowl, toss coleslaw mix, green onions, rice vinegar, honey, and the remaining sesame oil. Mix well.
  4. Heat oil in a deep or wide pan for frying. Fry each wonton wrapper 20–30 seconds per side until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  5. Fill each crispy wonton with cooked chicken and a spoon of slaw. Drizzle with sweet chili sauce.
  6. Garnish tacos with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro. Serve right away.

Notes

Serve warm to keep the wonton shells crispy. Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to your spice preference.
