Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped
  • 1 package 12 ounces wonton wrappers
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lime wedges for serving
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about a minute.
  2. Add ground chicken, crumbling it as it cooks until fully browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Mix in soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil, followed by shredded carrots and cabbage. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  4. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat and let cool.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
  6. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture into the center of a wonton wrapper, fold to create a triangle, and seal the edges.
  7. Fry wonton bites in hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  8. Transfer cooked wonton bites to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  9. Serve warm, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
