Description
Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos are a fusion finger food featuring baked wonton shells filled with savory shredded chicken, crunchy slaw, and a creamy sriracha mayo drizzle. Perfect for parties or a fun twist on Taco Tuesday.
Ingredients
12 square wonton wrappers
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or poached)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 cup coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sriracha (or to taste)
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon honey
Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly brush both sides of the wonton wrappers with olive oil and drape each one over an oven-safe wire rack to form taco shapes.
- Bake for 7–9 minutes or until golden and crispy. Let them cool completely.
- In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until well coated.
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and honey to make the spicy mayo drizzle.
- Fill each crispy wonton shell with the chicken mixture.
- Top with coleslaw mix, then drizzle with spicy mayo.
- Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds if using.
- Serve immediately to maintain crispiness.
Notes
Use store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time.
Air fry the wonton shells at 350°F for 3–4 minutes as an alternative to baking.
Store the chicken and mayo separately in the fridge and assemble tacos just before serving.
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free wonton wrappers and sauces.
Adjust the spiciness of the mayo by increasing or decreasing the sriracha.
