Panda Express Cream Cheese Rangoon [0000151]

Ingredients:

8 gluten-free wonton wrappers
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 egg, beaten (for sealing the wrappers)
Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, finely chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.

Lay out one gluten-free wonton wrapper at a time on a clean surface or cutting board.

Place about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper.

Using a pastry brush or your finger, brush a small amount of beaten egg along the edges of the wrapper.

Fold the wrapper diagonally to create a triangle, enclosing the cream cheese mixture. Press the edges firmly to seal, ensuring there are no air pockets.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Carefully add a few cream cheese-filled wontons to the hot oil and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Be cautious not to overcrowd the pan.

Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried rangoons and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Repeat the frying process until all rangoons are cooked.

Serve your gluten-free Panda Express Cream Cheese Rangoons hot, optionally with a sweet dipping sauce like sweet and sour or sweet chili sauce.

These gluten-free Cream Cheese Rangoons are a delicious appetizer, inspired by Panda Express, and perfect for parties or as a tasty snack.
