Chipotle Bacon Jalapeno Wontons

These wontons make a good snack or an appetizer. If you can’t handle a regular jalapeno popper but still like jalapenos this is a good substitute. You can make them as spicy as you want. You can even make them ahead of time and stick them in the freezer!

Step: 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step: 2

Combine cream cheese, bacon, jalapenos, shredded cheese, green onions, and hot sauce in a bowl. Mix well.

Step: 3

Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl.

Step: 4

Place 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture on a wonton wrapper. Brush the edges of the wonton wrappers with the egg mixture using a small pastry brush. Fold wonton into a triangle; pinch shut. Repeat with the rest of the wonton wrappers.

Step: 5

Place wontons carefully in the oil, working in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 6 minutes.
