Heat the vegetable oil in a small, deep skillet over medium heat.
Carefully fold each wonton wrapper in half to form a taco shape and gently fry in the hot oil for about 30 seconds on each side until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel. Repeat with all wrappers.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the teriyaki sauce. Set aside.
In another bowl, prepare the slaw by combining the coleslaw mix, green onions, cilantro, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Toss well to coat evenly.
Fill each fried wonton shell with a spoonful of the teriyaki chicken mixture.
Top the chicken with a helping of the prepared slaw.
Garnish with additional cilantro or green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
