Ingredients:

• 1 block of cream cheese
• 1 cup shredded chicken
• 2-3 tablespoons chopped bacon
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons diced scallions
• 1 cup jack cheese, shredded
• 1 cup buffalo sauce (such as Frank’s Red Hot)
• 1 package of wonton wrappers
• Egg wash (for sealing wontons)
• Ranch dressing (for garnish)
• Additional buffalo sauce (for dipping)
• Red hot sauce (for chicken seasoning)
• 1/2 pound bacon

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken:

• Season the shredded chicken with red hot sauce for added flavor. Set aside.

2. Cook the Bacon:

• In a skillet, cook 1/2 pound of bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet, let it cool, and chop into small pieces.

3. Make the Buffalo Chicken Filling:

• In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded chicken, chopped bacon, sour cream, diced scallions, shredded jack cheese, and buffalo sauce. Mix until well combined.

4. Assemble the Wontons:

• Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface.
• Place a small amount of the buffalo chicken filling in the center of each wrapper.
• Brush the edges of the wrapper with egg wash to help seal the wontons.
• Fold the wrappers in half, forming a triangle, and press the edges to seal. Make sure there are no air pockets.

5. Fry or Bake the Wontons:

• Option 1 (Frying): Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the wontons until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
• Option 2 (Baking): Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the assembled wontons on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until they become crispy and golden.

6. Serve:

• Arrange the buffalo chicken wontons on a serving platter.
• Drizzle with ranch dressing for garnish.
• Serve with additional buffalo sauce on the side for dipping.
