Asian Chicken Wonton Tacos (Skinny Recipe!)

You know those delicious pork filled wonton tacos from the casual dining establishment that shall not be named? Well these are those, but with a third of the calories and none of the guilt. Lean chicken is substituted for the pork and the taco "shells" are baked rather than being dunked in hot grease. This recipe looks fussy but it's actually very easy!

Asian Chicken Wonton Tacos




Ingredient List:

- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, grilled or boiled and shredded (or you can use 2 cupsof leftover   rotisserie chicken, shredded.
- 20 wonton wrappers
- 2 cups dry coleslaw
- 1/2 cup ginger sesame dressing (I made my own but the Newman's Own brand is very good too!)
- 2 TBSP BBQ sauce, preferably low sugar and sodium

Instructions:

1.) Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease the edges and rims of a 9x13 baking dish and fold wonton wrappers over the edge of the baking dish diagonally. Bake for 5 minutes, until wrappers are crispy.
2.) Meanwhile, combine the dressing and coleslaw in a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
3.) Combine chicken and BBQ sauce in another small bowl.
4.) Fill wonton "shells" with coleslaw and dressing mixture, and then with chicken mixture.
5.) Grease a baking sheet lightly, lay tacos on one side on the sheet, and mist the side of the tacos facing up with cooking spray. 
6.) Bake the tacos for another 5 minutes, until they are sizzling.
