How to Make Applebee S Chicken Wonton
- **Marinate the Chicken:** In a bowl or sealable plastic bag, combine 1/2 cup stir-fry sauce, 2 tablespoons Asian toasted sesame dressing, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce. Add 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight).
- **Prep the Coleslaw:** In a medium bowl, toss 4 cups coleslaw mix with 2 tablespoons Asian sesame dressing. Set aside.
- **Stir-fry the Chicken:** Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the marinated chicken and stir-fry until fully cooked and no longer pink (about 6-8 minutes), breaking up any large pieces. Remove from wok and transfer to a bowl.
- **Fry the Wontons:** Add about 1/2 inch of oil to the wok over medium-high heat. Fold wonton wrappers (about 24) into a triangle formation, leaving the top open. Carefully place wontons into the hot oil, frying until golden brown on one side (about 1-2 minutes). Flip and fry until golden brown on the other side (about 1-2 minutes). Remove and drain on paper towels.
- **Assemble the Tacos:** Place a small amount of the cooked chicken mixture into the bottom of each fried wonton. Top with coleslaw mixture, 2 tablespoons chopped green onion, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, and 1 tablespoon chopped red onion.
- **Serve Immediately:** Enjoy your delicious homemade Applebee's-style wonton tacos!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
