Time 30m

Yield 12 taco cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
12 wonton wrappers
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
One 4-ounce can diced green chiles, drained
2 teaspoons chili powder
Juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 small avocado, diced
1/3 cup pico de gallo
1/4 cup sour cream
Hot sauce, if desired
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Brush 12 cups of a mini muffin pan with the butter. Fit 1 wonton wrapper into each cup, folding the sides as needed.
  • In a small bowl, toss together the beans, green chiles, chili powder and lime juice. Spoon some of the bean mixture into each cup, about a heaping tablespoon each.

WONTON TACOS

Absolutely loved by the 9 of us!! My daughter Lisa and I had these at Applebee's. She found the recipe at http://blogchef.net. A timesaving tip...Freeze the chicken breast for about 2 hours before cutting. Makes it so much easier. Also..I just fry the papers flat. Couldn't get them shaped correctly. Turns out you can pile on more...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb chicken breasts cut chopped very small
2 Tbsp olive oil
4 Tbsp kikoman stir fry sauce
8 Tbsp kraft asian toasted sesame dressing
2 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
10 won ton wrappers
oil for frying
4 Tbsp green onions sliced
4 Tbsp red onion
4 Tbsp cilantro, fresh
FOR COLE SLAW MIX
1 c coleslaw mix
1 1/2 Tbsp kraft asian toasted sesame dressing

Steps:

  • 1. In a bowl or sealable plastic bag. Combine stir fry sauce, Asian toasted sesame dressing, soy sauce, and teriyaki sauce. Add chicken and mix well with the sauce. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • 2. In a medium bowl toss coleslaw mix with 2 tablespoons of Asian sesame dressing. Set aside. TIP...the marinade softens the coleslaw. I recommend that you mix it about 10 minutes before serving.
  • 3. Heat olive oil in a wok over high heat. Add chicken with the marinade and stir fry until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove from the wok and transfer to a bowl. Add about 1/2 inch of oil to the wok over medium high. Fold the wonton wrappers into a triangle formation but do not seal. Place into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on one side. Turn once and fry until golden brown on the other side. Drain on paper towels.
  • 4. To make tacos- place a small amount of the chicken mixture into the bottom of the fried wonton. Top with coleslaw mixture, green onion, cilantro and red onion.

SASSY WONTON TACOS

Provided by Food Network

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 small square wonton wrappers (see Cook's Note)
1 cup dry coleslaw mix
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons low-fat sesame ginger dressing (recommended: Newman's Own Lighten Up!)
4 ounces cooked and shredded (or finely chopped) skinless lean chicken breast
2 tablespoons BBQ sauce with about 45 calories per 2-tablespoon serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. To make the wonton shells, spray the inside and outside walls of a deep square or rectangular baking pan with nonstick spray. Evenly drape the wonton wrappers over the pan's walls on a diagonal, making triangle-shaped "shells." (Use two pans, if needed, to keep the wontons from overlapping.) Bake them until just crispy enough to hold their shape, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, but leave the oven on. Carefully remove the shells and gently open them to form "tacos." Set aside. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine coleslaw mix, cilantro, and dressing. Mix well. Cover and microwave for about 1 minute, until slightly softened. Set aside. In another bowl, combine chicken with BBQ sauce; mix well and set aside. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Evenly distribute the BBQ chicken among the shells, followed by the slaw, about 1 tablespoon of each per shell. Lay the filled won tons gently on their sides on the baking sheet. Spray the shells lightly with nonstick spray. Bake for about 5 minutes, until warm and crunchy. Let them cool slightly and serve!
