Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos

Ingredients:

For the wonton shells:

• 12 square wonton wrappers

• Cooking oil spray or light frying oil

For the chicken:

• 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced, rotisserie works great)

• 2 tbsp soy sauce

• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce (or teriyaki)

• 1 tbsp honey or brown sugar

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated

• 1 tbsp sesame oil

For toppings:

• 1 cup shredded cabbage (or coleslaw mix)

• 2 green onions, sliced

• ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

• ½ cup shredded cheese (optional)

• Drizzle of spicy mayo or Asian dressing

• Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Make the wonton shells:

   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

   • Drape wonton wrappers over the side of a greased muffin tin cup (to form taco shells).

   • Bake 5–7 minutes until golden and crispy. (Or fry in hot oil for 30–60 seconds until crisp.)

2. Prepare the chicken filling:

   • In a skillet, heat sesame oil. Add garlic and ginger; cook 1 minute.

   • Stir in chicken, soy sauce, hoisin, and honey. Cook until heated through and saucy.

3. Assemble tacos:

   • Fill crispy wonton shells with chicken mixture.

   • Top with shredded cabbage, green onions, cilantro, cheese (if using), and drizzle with spicy mayo.

   • Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

4. Serve immediately so the wontons stay crunchy.

✨ These taste like a fusion between Asian street food and tacos — crispy, saucy, and fresh.
