Air Fryer Crab Rangoon

Method

  1. 1

    Combine the crab meat, creamy cheese, garlic powder, green onion, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and sugar into a bowl and mix well.

  2. 2

    Lay the wonton wrapper on a cutting board or flat surface. Place 1 tsp. of the crab mixture into the center of the wonton wrapper.

  3. 3

    Moisten the edges of the wonton with a little bit of the water mixture {this helps keeps the wonton together during cooking}.

  4. 4

    Close all of the sides together into a a star makings sure the corners are all closed together.

  5. 5

    Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet until it is about 350 degrees. Fry as many wontons as fit in your skillet for about 30 - 45 seconds, making sure they don't burn. My skillet fit about 6-7 wontons.

  6. 6

    Place the wontons on a large plate lined with paper towel to soak up any leftover oil. Serve warm with the sweet chili dipping sauce and fresh cilantro.

  7. 7

    Brush each of the wontons with vegetable oil or you can use an olive oil spray to spray them.

  8. 8

    Preheat the air fryer at 400 degrees F for 5 minutes. Turn the air fryer to 350 degrees F and air fry for about 5-8 minutes or until the wontons are crispy and just turning brown.

  9. 9

    Place the wontons on a large plate lined with paper towel to soak up any leftover oil. Serve warm with the sweet chili dipping sauce and fresh cilantro.

Notes

Tip: If you want to fry the crab rangoon you can heat oil in a large skillet until it becomes hot oil to deep fry them. Add the rangoon in and cook for about 30-50 seconds until they are crispy working in small batches.
