Cream Cheese Asian Chicken Wontons are a fun appetizer to serve while watching the upcoming Super Bowl. They are crispy on the outside with a filling of cream cheese, ground chicken, green onions, and sweet chili sauce.
These tasty wontons are my entry in the game day category of the TWIN DRAGON ASIAN WRAPPER RECIPE CONTEST. I was sent packages of their wonton and egg roll wrappers to create appetizers in holiday and game day categories. I tested several recipes one afternoon, and my husband and I could not stop eating them.
The wonton wrappers are so easy to work with. They separate easily and stay sealed with just a little water around the edges. They are vegan, non-gmo, contain no preservatives, and are very light.
They can also be frozen for a later use.
HOW TO MAKE CREAM CHEESE ASIAN CHICKEN WONTONS:
To create the filling, combine softened cream cheese, diced green onions, cooked ground chicken, and sweet chili sauce.
Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of wonton wrapper. Moisten edges of each wrapper with water and fold in half diagonally to make a triangle, pressing edges to seal. Fry in heated oil for about 3 minutes until golden brown.
Serve the Cream Cheese Asian Chicken Wontons warm with ranch dressing, hot pepper butter, spicy dipping sauce, or your favorite sauce.
The other game day appetizer I created for this contest was
BBQ Chicken and Cheddar Wontons.
My recipe entries did not win anything in the contest, but I am happy to add these 2 delicious appetizers to my menu.
CREAM CHEESE ASIAN CHICKEN WONTONS

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, ground chicken, onions, and sweet chili sauce.
- Separate 24 wonton wrappers and lay on a flat work surface. (I did 6 at a time). Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling onto center of the wonton. Moisten the edges of wrapper with water, by using fingertips, and fold in half diagonally in a triangle shape. Press edges together to seal.
- Heat oil in a skillet or pan to 350 degrees F. Fry about 3 or 4 of the wontons at a time, until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain any grease.
- Transfer to a serving platter with choices of dipping sauces.
