Ingredients (Makes 12 cups)
For the Wonton Cups:
12 wonton wrappers
Cooking spray
For the Filling:
1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded (about 6 oz)
1/4 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped green onions
2 tsp taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
2 tbsp fat-free Greek yogurt
2 tbsp shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
Salt & pepper, to taste
Optional Toppings:
Salsa
Fresh cilantro
Avocado slices
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the wonton cups: Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, making sure the edges stick out slightly. Lightly spray or brush the wrappers with cooking spray.
Bake wrappers: Bake for 6–8 minutes or until lightly golden and crisp. Remove and let cool slightly.
Prepare the filling:
In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, black beans, diced tomatoes, green onions, taco seasoning, Greek yogurt, and shredded cheese. Mix until evenly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Fill the cups: Spoon the chicken mixture into each baked wonton cup, packing it lightly.
Bake again: Return the filled cups to the oven for 5–7 minutes, or until cheese melts and filling is heated through.
Garnish & serve: Top with salsa, cilantro, or avocado if desired. Serve warm.
