Ingredients
Instructions
Step 1
1. In a medium bowl, combine the thinly sliced chicken with teriyaki sauce, 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and honey. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate for 15 minutes to marinate.
Step 2
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil and the marinated chicken. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
3. In a separate bowl, toss the coleslaw mix with sweet chili sauce and set aside.
Step 4

Step 5
5. To assemble, fill each crispy wonton shell with a spoonful of teriyaki chicken, followed by a generous portion of the chili-dressed slaw.
Step 6
6. Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, sesame seeds, and any additional toppings you desire.
