I made this up the other day to use up left over BBQ chicken and wanted to create a Southwestern flavor. We like things spicy but the measurements can be easily adjusted to suit your taste!

INGREDIENTS (for 7 servings):

PREPARATION:

  • In a large bowl, toss together the chicken, corn, green pepper, green onions, and Cheddar cheese. In a separate bowl, stir together the cream cheese, barbeque sauce, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt and pepper. Blend the cream cheese mixture into the chicken mixture until everything is evenly coated.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface, and place a spoonful of the chicken and cheese filling on each one. Fold into triangles or rolls, sealing with a bit of water if necessary. Place onto baking sheets, and brush with lightly with vegetable oil or spray with cooking spray.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, turning once, until golden brown.


  • Cooking variations:

    Microwave: Cook 10 at a time for 2 to 3 minutes at full power, turning over halfway through.

    Deep-fry: Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry wontons a few at a time until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.

    Boil: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add wontons, and boil until wrapper is tender, about 8 minutes.
