Ingredients
Korean Chicken Wonton Nachos
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 to 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup Gochujang Chili Paste (Asian section of grocery store)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps garlic paste or fresh minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps ginger paste or fresh minced ginger
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps honey
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil or vegetable oil
  • vegetable oil (enough to fill a small skillet or saucepan 2 inches deep)
  • 20 wonton wrappers cut in half diagonally
  • 10 oz bag cole slaw or broccoli slaw
  • Optional: sesame seeds or green onions for garnish
Spicy Korean Mayo
  • 3/4 cup mayo
  • 1 to 2 Tbsps Gochujang Chili Paste
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
Instructions
Korean Chicken Wonton Nachos
  1. Put the diced onions in the slow cooker and place the chicken breasts on top of the onions.

  2. Whisk together the soy sauce, Gochujang Chili Paste, garlic, ginger, honey, and oil together in a bowl until evenly mixed. Pour over top of the chicken and onions.

  3. Turn the slow cooker on low for 6 to 8 hours.

  4. Shred with two forks right in the slow cooker.

  5. Pour enough vegetable oil in a small saucepan, enough to fill it 2 inches deep. Set it over medium heat and wait 5 to 6 minutes. Once the temperature reaches 350 degrees (using an instant read thermometer) carefully add a few wontons at a time.

  6. Fry the wontons 25 to 30 seconds to per side, remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with remaining wontons.

  7. Top the wontons with some Korean chicken, slaw, and drizzle with Spicy Korean Mayo. Top with sesame seeds and green onions if desired. Serve right away.

    Note: If you have leftover chicken, it's very good served over rice with the Spicy Korean Mayo!
