I made this chicken Rangoon one night with leftover roasted chicken. I had everything to make crab Rangoon — except the crab! Needless to say, my family fell in love with them. I'm sharing my recipe because I think your family will too.

Ingredients

  • peanut oil for frying

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1 pinch onion powder, or to taste

  • 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste

  • 1 dash Worcestershire sauce, or to taste

  • 1 dash soy sauce, or to taste

  • 1 pinch salt, or to taste

  • 1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste

  • 1 cup chopped cooked chicken

  • 1 (16 ounce) package wonton wrappers

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or deep, large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Stir cream cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Add chicken and stir until completely incorporated.

  3. Separate wonton wrappers and place onto a work surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon cream cheese filling onto the center of each wrapper. Working on one at a time, use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold one corner of the wrapper over the filling onto the opposite corner to form a triangle. Press the edges together to seal.

  4. Cook wontons in batches in hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Recipe Tip

You can substitute turkey or pork for the chicken.
