Easy Asian Chicken Salad Wonton Cups

Crisp, colorful, and packed with flavor, these Asian Chicken Salad Wonton Cups are a fun, lighter twist on classic Chinese Chicken Salad. Crunchy baked wonton wrappers create the perfect edible cup for a savory-sweet filling of tender chicken, crisp veggies, and simple Asian-inspired flavors.

They are easy to make, wonderfully satisfying, and perfect for lunch, a light dinner, party appetizer, or meal-prep snack.

Ingredients and Easy Substitutions

• Wonton wrappers – for the crispy cups; mini phyllo shells or baked tortilla scoops would also work
• Asian chopped salad mix – use your favorite bagged Asian salad kit or substitute bagged coleslaw mix and your favorite bottled Asian dressing
• Shredded rotisserie chicken – or use leftover cooked chicken breast, turkey, or even tofu for a vegetarian version

Step 5: Spoon salad mixture into wonton cups and drizzle with hoisin sauce. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes and Variations

• Make it spicier: Add sriracha, chili crisp, or sliced jalapeños
• Extra crunch: Top with sliced almonds, chow mein noodles, or sesame seeds
• Vegetarian option: Swap the chicken for edamame or baked tofu
• Lower sugar: Use a lighter Asian dressing or reduce the hoisin drizzle
• Meal prep tip: Bake the wonton cups ahead and store airtight until ready to fill
