Instructions

Creating Crispy Chicken Wonton Tacos is a breeze with these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
2. Cook the Chicken: Add ground chicken to the skillet. Season with soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in shredded carrots and green onions. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. Prepare Wontons: Lay out wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each wrapper.
5. Fold Wontons: Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a triangle or taco shape. Press the edges to seal tightly.
6. Heat Oil: In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
7. Fry Wontons: Carefully add the wontons in batches to the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
8. Serve Warm: Arrange the crispy wonton tacos on a platter. Add your desired toppings and enjoy immediately!
