Description

These easy chicken wontons are begging to be added to your favorite chicken soup.

Ingredients

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, minced
1 egg
1 green onion, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
50 wonton wrappers
2 cups cold water

Directions

1 Mix chicken, egg, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, vegetable oil, and salt in a large bowl until evenly combined.
2 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.
3 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.
