→ Wonton Shells and Garnishes
08 -
12 wonton wrappers
09 -
100 g coleslaw mix
10 -
2 green onions, thinly sliced
11 -
15 g fresh cilantro, chopped
12 -
Sweet chili sauce, for serving
# Steps:
01 -
In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, ground ginger, and black pepper until well combined.
02 -
Add thinly sliced chicken breasts to the bowl with marinade and toss until chicken is evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
03 -
Preheat oven to 180°C. Arrange wonton wrappers into muffin tin cups, gently pressing to form taco shells. Bake for 5–7 minutes or until golden and crisp. Allow to cool in tin briefly, then transfer to a rack.
04 -
Heat a skillet over medium-high. Remove chicken from marinade and discard excess liquid. Sauté chicken in the hot skillet for 5–7 minutes, stirring until thoroughly cooked and lightly browned.
05 -
Add a layer of coleslaw mix into each baked wonton shell. Top with cooked chicken, then garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.
06 -
Arrange chicken wonton tacos on a platter and serve immediately with sweet chili sauce on the side.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Marinating the chicken overnight will intensify the flavor and tenderness.
02 -
Wonton shells continue to crisp as they cool; avoid overbaking to prevent brittleness.
