Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound ground chicken
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 16 pieces low-carb wonton wrappers
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and chopped green onions. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Lay out the low-carb wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about a teaspoon of the chicken mixture in the center of each wrapper.
Using a brush or finger, lightly apply beaten egg to the edges of the wonton wrapper.
Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal tightly. Ensure there are no air bubbles. You can crimp the edges with a fork for a tighter seal, if desired.
In a heavy-bottomed pan or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the wontons in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan. Fry the wontons for 2-3 minutes, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the wontons from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining wontons. Serve hot with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
