Description

Delightful chicken wonton tacos featuring crispy wrappers and savory chicken topped with fresh ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, diced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 handful cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, optional
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: Toss diced chicken in soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Let it sit while you prepare the wonton shells.
  2. Fry the wonton wrappers: Heat olive oil in a pan and fry each side of the wonton until golden and crispy. Allow them to cool.
  3. Cook the chicken: In the same pan, add a dash more oil if needed and cook the marinated chicken over medium heat until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Assemble: Spoon the chicken into each wonton shell, top with green onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime if desired.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Gather your friends, toast to good food, and dig in!

Notes

For extra flavor, consider serving with fresh salsa or a drizzle of spicy sauce. Store components separately to maintain crispness.
