Jalapeno Popper Wontons
Jalapeños are the most popular chile peppers in the US. This is probably due to the availability and versatility of the chile. Jalapeños have a balanced combination of flavor and heat. The demand for these have caused breeders to develop a broad range of varieties.
Recipe yields 50 wantons
You will need:
8oz Cream Cheese
1 cup mexi blend cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
2 jalapeno peppers seeded and diced (to make them hotter 3-4 peppers)
1 package 50 count small wonton wraps
First step is to mix the cheeses, ranch and peppers together in a bowl. You can even make the filling the day before if needed or make it and use it right away… either works just fine. Open your wonton wraps lay each wrap out onto a flat surface. Put a small drop of filling into the middle of each wrap. Get a small bowl of water, dip your finger into the water and wet the edge of the wonton. Fold in half, the water will SEAL the edges together.
Fry the wontons in oil over medium-high heat. They cool really fast, 15-50 seconds on each side, you will need to flip them once for even cooking. Take out of the hot oil, drain on a paper towel. If you want you can even bake them, but I prefer the fried ones!
