Equipment

  • large bowl
  • skillet
  • muffin tin
  • oven

Ingredients
  

Vegetables

  • head red cabbage sliced and chopped
  • 4 small carrots peeled and grated

Dressings and Sauces

  • ¼ cup coleslaw dressing
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
  • ¼ cup stir-fry sauce

Cooking Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil for cooking
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 14 pieces wonton wrappers

Instructions
 

Preparation

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

Notes

You can substitute chicken breast or ground turkey for ground chicken. Use plain yogurt instead of coleslaw dressing and olive oil instead of sesame oil for variations.
