Number Of Ingredients 9

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, minced
1 egg
1 green onion, minced
1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
¼ teaspoon salt
50 wonton wrappers
2 cups cold water

Steps:

  • Mix chicken, egg, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, vegetable oil, and salt in a large bowl until evenly combined.
  • Scoop about 1 teaspoon chicken mixture and place into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten 2 adjacent edges of the wrapper with water and fold into a triangle.

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Stir wontons into boiling water. Add 1/2 cup cold water and allow water to return to a boil. Repeat boiling with another 1/2 cup cold water. Wontons are ready when chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Drain.

Tips:

  • To ensure the wontons are crispy, make sure the oil is hot enough before frying. The oil should be at least 350°F (175°C).
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the wontons. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the wontons will not cook evenly.
  • If you are using a store-bought wonton wrapper, make sure to moisten the edges with water before sealing. This will help to ensure a tight seal and prevent the wontons from opening up while frying.
  • For a spicier buffalo sauce, add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce to taste.
  • Serve the buffalo chicken wontons immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing.

Conclusion:

Crispy buffalo chicken wontons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you are looking for a fun and tasty snack, give these buffalo chicken wontons a try! You won't be disappointed.
