Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces won ton wrappers
- 1 can cooking spray
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast
- 2 cups green cabbage
- 1 cup carrots, shredded
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced thin
- 0.25 cup cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a standard muffin tin lightly with cooking spray.
Gently press one won ton wrapper into each muffin cup, forming a basket shape. Be careful not to tear the wrappers.
Spray the tops of the won ton wrappers with a little more cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the won ton wrappers are golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced), shredded green cabbage, shredded carrots, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, sesame seeds, salt, and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Toss well to combine and coat evenly.
Once the won ton baskets are completely cooled, carefully remove them from the muffin tin.
Fill each basket with a scoop of the Chinese chicken salad mixture, dividing it evenly among the baskets.
Serve immediately to ensure the baskets remain crisp. Enjoy your delicious Chinese Chicken Salad in Won Ton Baskets!
