Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray the back of a muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. Drape the wonton wrappers over the inverted muffin cups to form taco shells and bake for 5-7 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then add diced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until no longer pink.
  4. Stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger; sauté for 2-3 minutes until the chicken is coated in the sauce.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine coleslaw mix, green onions, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey; mix until well coated.
  6. Fill each wonton shell with the chicken mixture, top with slaw, drizzle sweet chili sauce, and garnish with cilantro and sesame seeds.
