Crab Rangoon Recipe from Dinner at the Zoo

Ingredients

• 8 oz crab meat or imitation crab, chopped
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• 3 tbsp sliced green onions, plus extra for garnish
• 20 wonton wrappers
• 1 egg, beaten
• Oil for frying
• Dipping sauce of choice

Directions

1. Prepare the Filling – In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and green onions. Stir until smooth and well blended.
2. Fill the Wontons – Lay a wonton wrapper flat and place 2 teaspoons of the filling in the center. Brush the edges lightly with beaten egg.
3. Shape the Wontons – Bring two opposite corners together at the center and pinch. Repeat with the other two corners to form a small pouch. Press the edges to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
4. Fry to Perfection – Heat 4 inches of oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry in small batches (5-6 wontons at a time), turning occasionally, until golden brown (about 3-5 minutes).
5. Drain & Serve – Transfer cooked wontons to a paper towel-lined plate. Garnish with additional sliced green onions and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
6. Enjoy your crispy, creamy crab wontons! 🦀✨
