- 2 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated or finely minced)
- 2 tablespoons Sweet chili sauce
Asian Slaw
- ½ cup purple cabbage (shredded)

Tacos
- 18 wonton wrappers

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray wonton wrappers on both sides with cooking spray or brush with cooking oil of choice.
- Turn a mini muffin tin upside down and press the wonton wrappers between two muffin tin cups to make a taco shell. Bake for 8-10 minutes, watching them closely so they don't burn. Depending on the size of your muffin tin you may need to cook the wonton wrappers in batches.
- Mix diced chicken in a large bowl with the hoisin sauce, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic and ginger.
- Heat a large pan on high heat with a teaspoon of cooking oil and cook chicken for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently until cooked through.
- Once the chicken is cooked through turn off the heat and stir in the sweet chili sauce. Toss the chicken until evenly coated.
- To prepare the coleslaw shred your cabbage and carrots, or use store bought coleslaw mix.
- In a large bowl combine the coleslaw mix, green onions and all of the dressing ingredients.
- Mix until well combined.
- Assemble your tacos by adding a spoonful of the chicken mixture to each wonton shells, then top with coleslaw, drizzle with sweet chili sauce and sprinkle with cilantro or parsley and sesame seeds. Serve and enjoy!
