I have always loved these as a starter with Asian dishes or even just fried rice. I have tried many different recipes for them but they never came out how I liked them. So I made my own!

How To Make crab rangoons - chicken vanco's

  • Step 1
    Soften Cream cheese place in a bowl. Flake in crabmeat into chunks. Dice up the tops of the green onion and a small portion of the white. Mix all together with a two prong {grill or steak} fork. Using this will break up the crabmeat without making the mixture "mushy".
  • Step 2
    Using water wet the edges of the wonton wrapper. Place a spoonful of mixture in the wrapper and seal edges all the way around by folding over, or if you want to get fancy pull all 4 corners up and pinch edges closed. Repeat until all mixture is used.
  • Step 3
    Heat oil for frying... place rangoon into oil and fry until golden brown.
  • Step 4
    Now here is where I cheat. I serve these with sweet and sour sauce... I just go to my local Chinese quick service and pay for it because I have yet to master the sauce. Dip and Enjoy!!!!
  • Step 5
    MODIFICATIONS..... IF YOU DO NOT LIKE CRABMEAT THESE CAN BE MADE WITH REPLACING THE CRABMEAT FOR CHICKEN BREASTS. THEY COME OUT JUST AS GOOD.
