Print: Chicken Wonton Tacos

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

0.33 heads red cabbage , sliced and chopped
4 small carrots , peeled and grated
0.25 cups coleslaw dressing
0.25 cups red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 pound ground chicken
0.25 cups stir-fry sauce

Instructions

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.
2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
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.
4 While chicken mixture simmers, form wonton wrappers into taco shapes and arrange between the cups of an inverted muffin tin.

6 Enjoy!
