1

In a large bowl, using two forks, finely shred the chicken breasts.

2

Finely chop the leek. Peel and crush the garlic and ginger.

3

Heat the sunflower oil in a large saucepan placed over a medium-high heat. Add the leek, garlic and ginger and sauté until tender, approx. 2 minutes. Add in the stir-fry mix and sauté for a further 5-10 minutes or until tender. Remove from the heat and place in a medium-sized bowl.

4

Add 2 tsp soya sauce, 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce, 2 tsp sesame oil and shredded chicken.

5

Finely chop one handful of coriander and add to the mix. Stir to combine and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

6

To make the dipping sauce, place 4 tbsp soya sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil and 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce in a bowl and mix until well combined. Set aside.

7

To assemble, place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface, spoon a teaspoon of the filling in the centre of the wrapper, brush water around the edges of the wrapper, then fold the wonton over the filling to create a triangle. Pinch to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

8

Heat a large pot of oil over a medium-high heat. Once the oil reaches 180°C, fry the wontons for approx. 2-3 minutes per side or until crispy and browned.

9

Serve the wontons warm along with the dipping sauce, sesame seeds, microgreens and one handful of roughly torn coriander.
