Delicate wonton shells bake into crisp golden cups, holding a creamy shrimp filling laced with garlic, green onion, and melted cheese. The contrast is simple and elegant, with a bubbling center and a light, crunchy edge.
🛒Ingredients :
• 12 wonton wrappers
• 1 pound shrimp, peeled, cooked, and chopped
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Sweet chili sauce or garlic dip, for serving
👩🍳How to Make It:
1. Shape the Wonton Cups
Preheat the oven to 375 F and gently press the wonton wrappers into a muffin pan. Brush each one lightly with melted butter so the edges bake crisp and golden.
2. Prepare the Shrimp Filling
Incorporate the chopped shrimp, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, minced garlic, green onions, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Fold until the mixture is creamy, well seasoned, and evenly combined.
3. Fill with Care
Spoon the shrimp and cheese filling into each wonton cup, keeping the filling slightly mounded. Let the edges of the wrappers remain visible so they can crisp beautifully in the oven.
4. Finish in the Oven
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the wonton cups are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbling. Watch the edges closely near the end so they stay crisp without becoming too dark.
5. Garnish and Serve
Remove the cups from the pan while warm and finish with a few fresh green onion slices. Serve with sweet chili sauce or garlic dip while the shells are crisp and the filling is soft and savory.
Prep Time: 15 min . Cook Time: 15 min . Total Time: 30 min . Servings: 12 cups
Note: You can absolutely make these in an air fryer, and they turn out incredibly crisp. Just air fry the empty wonton cups at 350°F for about 3 to 4 minutes until they take shape, then fill them up and air fry for another 4 to 6 minutes until the cheese is hot, bubbly, and perfectly melted. You're going to love them!
