These chicken wonton tacos are similar to those at Applebees. I loved the ones at Applebees and decided to attempt a home version. Light and tasty, they make a great appetizer or a quick and easy main dish. Kids love them! Finally, a dish that makes use of ground chicken but is not so far-fetched. I bake the wonton wrappers to save time and eliminate most of the fat. I am extremely pleased with this healthier version. Top tacos with cilantro, red onion, or sweet onion, if desired. Serve lime wedges on the side.
Ingredients
- 1/3 head red cabbage, sliced and chopped
- 4 small carrots, peeled and grated
- ¼ cup coleslaw dressing
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 pound ground chicken
- ¼ cup stir-fry sauce
- 14 wonton wrappers
Directions
Step 1
Mix together cabbage, carrots, coleslaw dressing, vinegar, soy sauce, and teriyaki in a large bowl until well combined. Place in the refrigerator until flavors blend, 1 hour to overnight.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 3
Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir ground chicken in hot oil until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour in stir-fry sauce. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer.
Step 4
While chicken mixture simmers, form wonton wrappers into taco shapes and arrange between the cups of an inverted muffin tin.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until firm and lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons chicken mixture into each wonton taco shell and top with slaw.
Step 6
Enjoy!
Tips
You can substitute chicken breast or ground turkey for ground chicken.
