Description
These Crispy Chicken Wonton Cups offer a crunchy exterior and a creamy chicken filling, perfect for parties and gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package wonton wrappers
- 1 lb chicken breast, cooked and shredded
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- Oil for frying (if baking, omit this)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) if baking.
- In a bowl, mix the cooked shredded chicken, shredded mozzarella, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, soy sauce, garlic powder, minced ginger, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray or brush with a little oil.
- Press a wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, gently folding edges as needed to form a little cup.
- Fill each wonton cup with about 1–1½ teaspoons of the chicken mixture.
- If frying: heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry wonton cups in batches for 2–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- If baking: place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10–15 minutes, or until wrappers are golden and filling is hot and cheese is melted.
- Let cool slightly before removing from the tin and serving.
Notes
For extra crisping, brush the tops of wonton wrappers lightly with oil before baking. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
