Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

• 2 skinless boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
• 2 tsp fresh garlic, minced
• 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced

For the Slaw:

• 1 bag of coleslaw mix
• 1/4 cup green onions, diced
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
• 1 tbsp honey

For the Wonton Tacos:

• 16 wonton wrappers
• Sweet chili sauce, for topping
• Sesame seeds, for garnish
• Chopped cilantro, for garnish

Directions:

1. Marinate the Chicken:
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced chicken with teriyaki sauce, sesame oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ginger. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour to absorb all the flavors.

2. Prepare Wonton Taco Shells:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). To create the taco shells, drape the wonton wrappers over an inverted muffin tin. Bake them for 7-9 minutes until golden and crispy.

3. Cook the Chicken:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken until it’s fully cooked, with no pink in the center. The chicken should be tender and packed with flavor.

4. Prepare the Slaw:
In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix with green onions, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and honey. Toss until the slaw is well coated and slightly tangy.

5. Assemble the Tacos:
Carefully fill each crispy wonton shell with the cooked chicken. Top with the prepared slaw for a fresh crunch. Drizzle the tacos with sweet chili sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro for a burst of flavor and color.
