- 1 tbsp soy sauce, plus another for the coleslaw
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp minced fresh ginger
- 1 bag coleslaw mix

Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Wonton Shells : Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray or brush the wonton wrappers with cooking spray or oil. Drape them over the sides of a 9×13-inch baking dish to create a taco shell shape. Bake for 7-8 minutes until they turn golden and crispy.
- Cook the Chicken : In a bowl, combine diced chicken with hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp soy sauce, minced garlic, and ginger. Sauté this mixture in a large skillet over high heat for 7-8 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
- Mix the Coleslaw : In a separate bowl, mix the coleslaw mix, sliced green onions, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tbsp honey.
- Assemble the Tacos : After the wonton shells are crispy, gently separate them. Spoon the cooked chicken mixture into each shell, followed by a generous topping of the coleslaw mix. Drizzle sweet chili sauce over the top.
- Garnish and Serve : Finish by garnishing the tacos with chopped cilantro and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately to enjoy the crunch and flavor of these delightful tacos.
- Can I use store-bought wonton shells? Yes, you can use pre-made wonton shells to save time, though baking your own shells as described will provide the best flavor and texture.
- Is there a vegetarian alternative? Absolutely! Substitute the chicken with tofu or a mix of vegetables like bell peppers and mushrooms for a vegetarian version.
- Can I make these tacos gluten-free? Yes, to make them gluten-free, ensure that your soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and wonton wrappers are gluten-free varieties.
