Ingredients

• 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
• 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 3 medium Jalapenos, finely diced
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Soy sauce
• 3 cups Vegetable oil, for frying
• 1 large Egg, beaten (for sealing)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, diced jalapenos, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.

Step 2

Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean, flat surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling mixture in the center of each wrapper.

Step 3

Using a pastry brush or your fingertip, lightly brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with the beaten egg.

Step 4

Fold the wonton wrappers into a triangle by bringing one corner to the opposite corner, enclosing the filling completely. Press the edges firmly to seal, ensuring no filling escapes.

Step 5

For an optional decorative fold, bring the two wide corners of the triangle together and pinch them to create a neat pouch shape. Repeat with all wontons.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Test the oil with a small piece of wonton wrapper—if it sizzles and floats, the oil is ready.

Step 7

Working in batches, carefully lower the wontons into the hot oil, being cautious not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until the wontons are crisp and golden brown.

Step 8

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried wontons from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the Jalapeno Rangoon warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili, soy sauce, or ranch dressing.
