Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos
  1. In a mixing bowl, marinate the chicken by combining it with teriyaki sauce, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes until no longer pink. The teriyaki sauce will caramelize.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine coleslaw mix, green onions, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame oil. Toss until well coated.
  4. In a small pan, heat vegetable oil and fry the wonton wrappers for 20-30 seconds on each side until crispy.
  5. Assemble the tacos by filling the fried wrappers with chicken and slaw. Drizzle with sweet chili sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro.
  6. Serve warm on a platter, allowing guests to customize their tacos. Enjoy!
