When I first read the recipe, I was a little skeptical. BBQ sauce, sesame ginger dressing, cilantro... the flavors just weren't something I'd think to put together. But, once you take the first bite and get all of the flavors combined- YUM! In fact, I inhaled 4 of them. The only thing I'd change for next time is to leave th cole slaw crispy instead of softening it in the microwave. Otherwise, these are a winner! They'd be a perfect appetizer at your next dinner party, too! I found the original recipe at Hungry-Girl.
SASSY CHICKEN WON TON TACOS
Serves: 8 mini tacos
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
8 small square wonton wrappers
1 cup dry coleslaw mix
2 Tbsp. fresh chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp. Lite Sesame Ginger Dressing ( I use Newman's Own)
4 oz. cooked skinless chicken breast (shredded or finely chopped)
2 Tbsp. barbecue sauce
Directions
1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2 Spray the inside and outside walls of a 9x13 baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Evenly drape the won ton wrappers diagonally over the walls, making triangle shaped "shells". Bake until just crispy enough to hold their shape. (Approx. 3 minutes)
3 Remove pan from oven, but leave oven on. Carefully remove wontons and gently open to form "taco shells". Set aside.
4 In a microwave safe bowl, combine colesaw mix, cilantro and dressing. Mix well. Cover and microwave until slightly softened (Approx. 1 minute). Set aside.
5 In another bowl, mix chicken and bbq sauce together.
6 Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Evenly distribute the chicken among the shells, followed by the coleslaw mix. Lay the filled shells on their side on the baking sheet.
7 Spray the shells lightly with non-stick spray and bake for 5 minutes or until crunchy.
