CRISPY ITALIAN WONTONS RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Crispy Italian Wontons Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by á-5531

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 spray(s) olive oil cooking spray
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons reduced-fat pesto sauce
3 tablespoons roasted red peppers (packed in water), chopped
2 tablespoons part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
16 wonton wrappers
1 cup store bought marinara sauce, warmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a large baking sheet with a good amount of cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, pesto, peppers and mozzarella. Place wonton wrappers on prepared baking sheet so wontons become saturated with oil. Place 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture onto center of each wrapper. Dip a finger into water and use it to moisten edges of wrapper; fold over one corner of wrapper to make a triangle and press sides together to create a seal. (If desired, create decorative lines along edges of wontons by pressing tines of a fork along bottom edge of each wonton.) Bake until wontons are golden brown on edges and dough is just cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
