Instructions

  1. Marinate chicken with teriyaki sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger for 10 minutes.
  2. Cook chicken in a skillet over medium heat until done, about 5 to 7 minutes. Slice into strips if needed and keep warm.
  3. Toss coleslaw mix, green onions, rice vinegar, honey, and remaining sesame oil in a bowl. Mix well.
  4. Lightly fry wonton wrappers in oil for 20 to 30 seconds per side until crispy.
  5. Fill each wonton with chicken and coleslaw, and drizzle with sweet chili sauce.
  6. Garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro. Serve immediately.

Notes

  1. Avoid overcrowding the frying pan to keep wonton shells crispy. Marinade chicken for the full 10 minutes for the best flavor.
