Sweet Soy–Glazed Chicken Tacos

- Sesame

These tasty tacos are reminiscent of Vietnamese banh mi—one of our all-time favorite sandos! You’ll pile sweet soy–glazed chicken and scallions into warm flour tortillas, then top with a crisp, tangy slaw, a drizzle of spicy gochujang aioli, and a sprinkle of crispy fried onions for savory crunch.

Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • In a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, vinegar, and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings). Set aside until ready to serve. • Trim and cut scallions into 1-inch batons.
• Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Thinly slice crosswise. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and scallions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned and warmed through and scallions are tender, 2-3 minutes. • Remove from heat; stir in sweet soy glaze. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in a splash of water.
• While chicken and scallions cook, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave until warm and pliable, 30-60 seconds.
• Divide tortillas between plates; fill with slaw (draining first) and chicken and scallions. • Top with as much gochujang aioli as you like and crispy fried onions. Serve.

Review summary
Updated on Apr 2026- Flavor: The sweet soy glaze and gochujang aioli create bold, restaurant-quality flavors that many found addictive. Some found it too sweet or salty; adjusting sauce amounts to taste helps balance the flavors.
- Ease of prep: Super quick and easy with precooked chicken making this perfect for busy weeknights. The simple steps come together in about 15 minutes with minimal cleanup required.
- Suggestions: Try adding cilantro, queso, or a splash of citrus for extra freshness. Let the slaw sit longer to develop more pickled flavor, and consider halving sauces if you prefer milder taste.
- Portions: Many felt the chicken portions were small for the number of tortillas provided. Adding a side like rice, beans, or extra vegetables would make it more filling.
Reviews from our home cooks
I really liked this, I didn't pay attention that they were sending precooked chicken which probably would have turned me off of this recipe but it turned out really good and was super easy to prepare. I also like that they used whole chicken breasts that we cut up which was much better than pre-chopped/sliced chicken. So I would definitely order this again especially if I'm looking for something quick.
The tacos are easy to make. The ingredients were nice and fresh. The acidic cole slaw was a great compliment to the sweet soy glaze. Personally, I don't prefer the taste of the umami profile that is sweet soy glaze. Otherwise this would be a 4/4 from me.
These tacos were absolutely delicious and very easy to make and clean up! My family loved these tacos!
Awesome flavor! Would never think to put crunchy onions on a taco. I learn so much from Hello Fresh!
I was skeptical about getting the precooked chicken but was pleasantly surprised! It was a great option and came out great! Made the week night dinner a breeze
Slightly sweet, a bit spicy and sour from the cabbage = a win!!!
So good! I actually made three meals out of this one. Two tacos was filling enough.
We liked it but would prefer a different aioli as it's a bit too spicy for us.
It was good, felt like a lot of flavors going on at once with the two sauces and the slaw and the fried onions but still good. I wish it also came with rice or a veggie side.
Good overall, but chicken was dry. I know the intention was to make it a fast meal, but maybe have the chicken cutlets instead.
