CHICKEN RANGOON
I had everything to make crab Rangoon one night except the crab. So I used leftover roasted chicken. Needless to say my family fell in love with them. I'm sharing my recipe, because I think your family will, too! You can substitute turkey or pork for the chicken.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or deep, large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- 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.
- Separate and place wonton wrappers onto work surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese filling onto the center of each wrapper. Use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers 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.
- Working in batches, cook wontons in hot oil until wonton is lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove to paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Tips:
- Wonton Wrappers: For the best results, use square wonton wrappers. If you only have round wrappers, you can trim them into squares.
- Filling: Make sure the filling is well-mixed and evenly distributed in the wonton wrappers.
- Frying: Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the rangoons. If the oil is too hot, the rangoons will brown too quickly and the filling will not have time to cook through. If the oil is not hot enough, the rangoons will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
- Draining: After frying, drain the rangoons on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serving: Serve the rangoons hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Sweet and sour sauce, chili sauce, or duck sauce are all good options.
Conclusion:
Chicken rangoons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. With a crispy wonton wrapper and a creamy chicken filling, these rangoons are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a tasty snack, give this recipe a try!
