Crispy Southwestern Chicken Wontons

I wanted to make these for my kids. I found this recipe from http://www.kevinandamanda.com/recipes/dinner/crispy-southwestern-wontons.html

I added some other things to it because I wanted a little more spice. It came out great. My kids loved it even with a little hotness. Also saved a batch for my husband when he comes home from his board game night at his brother.

In a large bowl mixed 2 cups shredded chicken from a whole roasted chicken. I roasted mine day before. De bone and shredded into small bite size. Added 1 cup black beans, 1 cup corn kernel, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper, 1 package knorr dry herb dressing, 2 cups of shredded 3 cheese (mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and Norvegia cheese) 2 tablespoons minced jalapenos, 1 tablespoon seasoning sauce, 1 tablespoon sweet paprika, 1 teaspoon sugar, salt & pepper to taste.

Knorr dry herb dressing.

2X wonton pastry package

Placed a small spoonful about a teaspoon of my  chicken mixture in the center of wonton pastry.

Rub egg/water mixture on each side of wonton pastry

Then folded over, sealed edges tightly, forming a triangle and just gently pressed out any extra air pockets.

I made a lot of them.
In a large pot filled vegetable oil half way, heat pot on medium/high heat. Waited until oil was hot then added about 5 wontons and fried them for 2 minutes. Flipped them over and cook for another 1-2 minutes and placed on a rack to cool and continued with rest.

Served on a nice plate with sweet and sour sauce and homemade dipping sauce. This is great for party or family gathering.

For homemade dipping sauce

1 cup creme fraiche

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1-2 tablespoons ketchup (optional)

3 tablespoon sun dried tomatoes

1 tablespoon lime juice

2 tablespoon dried banana pepper (optional)

3 tablespoon red wine

                                                                                    1 tablespoon garlic, minced

In a food processor combined all ingredients, pour into a container, covered, refrigerated for 3 hours.
