Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (divided)
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
For the Slaw
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
  • 2 pieces green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey
For the Tacos
  • 12 pieces wonton wrappers
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the chicken slices, teriyaki sauce, 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, toss together the coleslaw mix, sliced green onions, rice vinegar, honey, and the remaining sesame oil until mixed well.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until fully cooked and golden brown.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Lightly fry the wonton wrappers for about 20-30 seconds on each side until crispy. Drain them on paper towels.
Assembly
  1. Fill each crispy wonton wrapper with the cooked chicken and slaw. Drizzle sweet chili sauce on top for a burst of flavor.
  2. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped cilantro over the tacos for an extra pop!

Notes

For deeper flavors, consider marinating the chicken for 30 minutes. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
