These cream cheese wontons are a family favorite, served alongside our most loved Asian dishes like Fried Rice and Chinese Lemon Chicken.

We Love our Favorite Wontons!

My family LOVES Asian food! One of the recipes we like to make and one the hubby loves most is cream cheese wontons – have you had them? If we aren’t making Fried Egg Rolls or Wonton Nachos, this is the recipe we make. Why we love them:

Easy. This wonton recipe is quick, easy, and perfectly crispy! Delicious. It’s crispy, tasty, and full of a delicious cream cheese mixture that we love. A tasty side. They are easy to make and the perfect side to any of our Asian dishes (like Sweet and Sour Chicken or General Tso’s Chicken).

Ingredients

cream cheese  lemon pepper garlic pepper paprika egg roll or wonton wrappers fry oil –  fill the pan with 1-2 inches of oil with a high smoking point like vegetable oil, canola oil, peanut oil, or olive oil suitable for frying.
