Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 1 lb Ground chicken
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Ginger, minced
- 0.5 cup Szechuan sauce
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tsp Red chili flakes
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp Sriracha
- 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
Instructions
Cut the wonton wrappers into triangles to create chip-sized pieces.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat (350°F/175°C). Carefully fry the wonton triangles in batches until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
In a large skillet, cook the ground chicken over medium heat until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula. Drain any excess fat.
Add the minced garlic, ginger, soy sauce, Szechuan sauce, and red chili flakes to the cooked chicken. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until the flavors meld. Remove from heat.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
On a large, oven-safe platter or baking sheet, spread an even layer of the fried wonton chips.
Top the chips with the Szechuan chicken mixture, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle both the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses over the chicken and chips.
Place the platter or baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
Remove the nachos from the oven and drizzle with hoisin sauce and sriracha for extra flavor.
Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy the bold, spicy, and savory flavors of Chinese Firecracker Nachos II!
