Ingredient substitutions

- sesame oil – Sesame oil is the best choice for Asian dishes like this one. If you need a substitute, stick to a neutral flavor like vegetable oil
- soy sauce – feel free to use low-sodium to reduce the salt. If you need a gluten free substitute, use tamari
- garlic cloves – minced garlic that comes in a jar works too

- honey – for Asian foods, good substitutes for honey are agave syrup or brown rice syrup
Where to find wonton wrappers
If you shop at an asian market, won ton wrappers will be easy to find. They are normally in the refrigerated foods section .
At traditional grocery store stores, they are typically in the refrigerated department of the ethic food aisle. Otherwise, look in the produce section. They might be near the spice roots ( like ginger ), or near the refrigerated salad dressings .

These are bantam little asian appetizers, but if you have a acuate kitchen knife and are estimable at mince, consider adding some of these other toppings :

Storing and reheating
Any time you combine hot and cold foods together, it can be crafty to reheat them without losing some spirit, texture, or both. Because of this, these appetizers are well eaten on the sidereal day they are made .
If you do have leftover chicken that you want to keep to enjoy late, memory it in a cover container in the refrigerator for up to 3 or 4 days. You can constantly bake the won ton shells fresh again in the oven .
