Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (for topping)
  • Salsa and chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin.
  2. Prepare Chicken Taco Filling:
    • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground chicken until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and prepare according to the package instructions.
  3. Assemble Wonton Cupcakes:
    • Gently press a wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, creating a cup shape. Make sure the edges of the wrappers stick out a bit to form a cup.
  4. Layer Ingredients:
    • Begin by layering the wonton cups with cooked chicken taco mixture, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese. Repeat the layers until each cup is filled.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the wonton edges are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Cool and Garnish:
    • Allow the wonton cupcakes to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin. Top each cupcake with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with salsa and chopped green onions.
  7. Serve:
    • Serve the chicken taco wonton cupcakes warm. They can be enjoyed as a fun and flavorful appetizer or part of a larger meal.
