Cheesy Chicken Wontons Recipes

CREAM CHICKEN WONTONS

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix your ground chicken, cream cheese, green onions and seasonings until combined.
• Set up a rolling station with the wonton wrappers and a small dish of water.
• Place a wonton wrapper at an angle, so there is a corner pointing up.
• Place a heaping teaspoon of the filling (more if you want) in the center of the wrapper.
• Using your fingers, brush the entire edges of the wonton wrapper with a little bit of water. Fold the wrapper over the filling, making a triangle and then press the edges shut. If it doesn't seal good, brush the edges with a little more water.
• Take the two corners of the triangle (on the bottom of the triangle where the wrapper is folded over) and press them together. Use a little bit of water to make sure the corners stay stuck together, then fold them to one side, pressing them to the wonton. Repeat until all of the filling is gone.
