1. In a food processor, add shrimp, gluten-free soy sauce, sliced green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Pulse until the mixture is well combined and coarsely chopped.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, and salt. Stir to combine.
3. Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture, stirring constantly, until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.
4. Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each piece into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin.
5. Place a teaspoon of the shrimp filling in the center of each dough circle. Moisten the edges with a little water, fold the circle over to form a semi-circle, and press the edges to seal the wonton.
6. Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the wontons and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
7. Remove the wontons from the pan and drain on paper towels.
8. Serve the gluten-free shrimp wontons with your choice of dipping sauce.
