# How to Make It:
01 -
Mix the sliced chicken strips with teriyaki sauce, half the sesame oil, soy sauce, chopped garlic, and grated ginger in a container. Mix everything well and let it sit for 10 minutes.
02 -
Warm up a non-stick pan over medium heat. Throw in your marinated chicken and stir now and then for about 5 to 7 minutes until it's fully cooked and gets some nice brown edges.
03 -
Grab a big bowl and mix your cabbage and carrot mix, sliced green onions, rice vinegar, honey, and the other half of your sesame oil. Toss everything together until the dressing coats everything evenly.
04 -
Pour a thin amount of oil into a pan and heat it up over medium-high heat. Cook each wonton for about 20 to 30 seconds on each side until they turn golden and crunchy. Put them on paper towels to soak up extra oil.
05 -
Take each crunchy wonton shell and stuff it with some chicken and slaw. Add a little drizzle of sweet chili sauce on top.
06 -
Scatter some sesame seeds and chopped cilantro on your tacos before you serve them.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Make the wonton shells right before you put everything together so they stay nice and crispy.
