Time 30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (4 ounce) can diced jalapeno peppers
20 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers
½ cup sweet chili sauce
oil for deep frying

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese and jalapeno peppers. Arrange wonton wrappers a few at a time on a clean dry surface. Set a cup or small bowl of water nearby. Place about a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each wrapper. Moisten your fingertip in the bowl of water and trace the edges of the wonton wrappers. Fold into triangles or follow directions on the package for desired shapes. This part can be done ahead of time and refrigerated or frozen.
  • Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). When hot, fry the wontons a few at a time until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with all of the wontons, then serve with the sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Tips:

  • Choose the right wonton wrappers: Thin wonton wrappers work best for this recipe, as they will crisp up nicely in the air fryer. If you can't find thin wonton wrappers, you can use regular wonton wrappers, but they will be a bit softer.
  • Don't overfill the wontons: Too much filling will make it difficult to seal the wontons and they may burst open in the air fryer. Use about 1 teaspoon of filling per wonton.
  • Seal the wontons tightly: To prevent the filling from leaking out, make sure to seal the wontons tightly. You can do this by folding the edges of the wonton wrapper over the filling and then pinching them together.
  • Air fry the wontons in batches: Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket, or the wontons won't cook evenly. Cook the wontons in batches, if necessary.
  • Serve the wontons immediately: Jalapeño popper wontons are best served hot and crispy. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or marinara sauce.

Conclusion:

Jalapeño popper wontons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. They are also a great way to use up leftover jalapeños. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these tasty treats that everyone will love.
