Jalapeno Bacon Wonton Poppers image

These jalapeno popper wontons are so good, they all may be eaten by the time you finish frying. The outside is crisp while the inside filling is creamy and a flavor explosion. The cream cheese and Monterey jack cheese melt together and cool down the spicy jalapenos. Bacon is a delicious addition and gives a smoky, savory flavor...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c monterey jack cheese, shredded
3/4 c cooked, crumbled bacon
2 can(s) diced jalapeno peppers, 4 oz each
4 large cloves garlic, minced
6 green onions, diced
2 pkg packages wonton wrappers, 16 oz each
oil, for frying

Steps:

  • 1. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, bacon, jalapeno peppers, garlic, and green onions. (I usually prepare in advance to meld flavors.)
  • 2. Fill wonton wrappers with about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture each. Moisten edges with water and fold into a triangle shape, sealing edges. Make sure edges are sealed tight.
  • 3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Drop a few wontons into oil at a time and quickly fry, turning once.
  • 4. Remove when golden brown and drain on paper towels.
  • 5. Serve warm!
