Chicken Wontons

Ingredients

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, minced
  • 1 egg
  • 1 green onion, minced
  • 1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 50 wonton wrappers
  • 2 cups cold water

Directions

  • Mix chicken, egg, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, vegetable oil, and salt in a large bowl until evenly combined.
  • Scoop about 1 teaspoon chicken mixture and place into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten 2 adjacent edges of the wrapper with water and fold into a triangle. Connect the two lower points of the wrapper and moisten to seal and make a hat shape. Repeat with remaining chicken and wonton wrappers.
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Stir wontons into boiling water. Add 1/2 cup cold water and allow water to return to a boil. Repeat boiling with another 1/2 cup cold water. Wontons are ready when chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Drain.
