Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Sauté shrimp in either 1 tsp of olive oil or butter; totally up to you! Add garlic in towards the end and cook until shrimp are opaque and garlic is fragrant.
- Once shrimp are fully cooked, transfer to a cutting board (along with garlic) and mince into very small pieces.
- In a small bowl combine cheeses, chives, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and salt. Add your shrimp and garlic mixture and mix well.
- To prep the wonton wrappers, lay the squares out on a flat surface.
- Add a heaping teaspoon of the shrimp mixture to the center of each wonton.
- Fill a small cup/bowl with water and set aside. Working one at a time, moisten fingers with water. Run your finger along two sides of the wrapper to moisten, and fold into a triangle.
- Pick up each triangle and press along both sides to seal. The water should act like a glue and help you press the edges into little pouches.
- Seal em up super tight and pop them on a wire rack atop a baking sheet. See photos in post for a visual. No wire rack? See notes for alternate baking method.
- Lightly spritz the won-tons with spray oil (I used an avocado oil spray)
- Bake at 400 F for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.
- Enjoy hot with sweet chili sauce for dunking!
Notes
- Not using a wire rack? You can bake it directly on a baking sheet (with optional parchment paper as a liner) but be sure to change the baking temp and time in this place. You’ll want to bake it in a pre-heated oven at 375 degrees F for about 10-11 minutes. To prevent sticking when baking directly on the rack, grease the baking sheet lightly with oil or use parchment paper.
- The shrimp and cream cheese mixture can be made a few hours in advance and set in the fridge to chill until you'r ready to assemble and bake your won-tons.
