Easy Shrimp Rangoon Recipe

Ingredients:

8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened

1 cup cooked shrimp, finely chopped (or use small pre-cooked shrimp)

2 green onions, finely chopped

1 garlic clove, minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)

1 tsp soy sauce (optional, for extra flavor)

Salt & pepper to taste

24 wonton wrapper

Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions:

Mix the Filling

In a bowl, combine:

Cream cheese

Chopped shrimp

Green onionsl

Garlic

Soy sauce (if using)

A pinch of salt & peppe

Assemble the Rangoons

Lay out wonton wrappers on a clean surface.

Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.

Wet the edges with water using your finger.

Fold into a triangle (or bring all 4 corners up for a “purse” shape), sealing tightly to avoid leaks.

Fry

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

Fry rangoons in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve

Serve hot with sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or duck sauce.

Tips:

Use pre-cooked shrimp to save time.

Bake instead of frying: 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes, brushed with oil.

Make ahead: Freeze before frying, then cook from frozen (just add a minute or two)
