Crab Rangoon

This crisp, fried wonton is loaded with cream cheese and crab goodness, and it’s an absolute party favorite!

Ingredients
  • 2 cups vegetable oil
  • 5 ounces drained crab meat
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 24 2- inch won ton wrappers
Directions
  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, garlic, green onion, sesame oil, Worcestershire, salt and pepper, to taste.
  3. To assemble the wontons, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 1/2 teaspoons of the mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a triangle, pinching the edges to seal.
  4. Working in batches, add wontons to the Dutch oven and fry until evenly golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  5. Serve immediately with dipping sauce, if desired.
