Ingredients
  

Marinade
  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup stir fry sauce
  • 1/4 cup sesame ginger dressing
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
Coleslaw
  • 1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 tablespoons sesame ginger dressing
Wonton Tacos
  • 10 pieces wonton wrappers
  • vegetable oil, for frying
For garnish/serving
  • fresh cilantro
  • lime wedges

Equipment

  • deep frying pan
  • bowl
  • Non-stick Pan

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with the stir fry sauce, sesame ginger dressing, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a deep frying pan, heat enough vegetable oil to be at least 2 inches deep over medium high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Gently fold each wonton wrapper into a triangle shape without sealing the edges. Fry until crispy and golden brown, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess grease.
  3. In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced cabbage, shredded carrot, and sesame ginger dressing until thoroughly mixed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until fully cooked through and caramelized with the marinade.
  5. Place approximately 1-1 ½ tablespoons of the cooked chicken mixture into each wonton shell. Top the chicken with the coleslaw mixture. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and serve with lime wedges.
