This version of my favorite Chinese appetizer is baked instead of fried, making them lower in fat. They are absolutely delicious! I don't really like crab, but I devour these.

Categories     Crab

Time 45m

Yield 48 rangoon

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 ounces neufchatel cheese, softened (low fat cream cheese)
1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat, drained and flaked
4 -5 green onions, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 (48 count) package wonton skins
1/4-1/2 cup melted butter

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, combine all ingredients except wonton skins and butter.
  • Mix until well blended.
  • Place 1 teaspoon filling in center of each wonton skin.
  • Moisten edges with water.
  • Fold in half to form triangle, pressing edges to seal.
  • Pull bottom corners down and overlap slight; moisten one corner and press to seal. (Usually there is a diagram on the wonton package. I think they look like little kerchiefs.).
  • Arrange on baking sheet that has been coated with vegetable spray.
  • Brush with melted butter.
  • Bake in 425º oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve hot with desired sauce.
  • NOTE: I like hoisin or plum sauce and sweet and sour -- even jalapeno pepper jelly!
  • NOTE: These can also be fried, if prefer.

BAKED CRAB RANGOON WITH THAI GINGER-LIME DIPPING SAUCE



Baked Crab Rangoon With Thai Ginger-Lime Dipping Sauce image

This recipe is just a bit different than the many other Baked Crab Rangoon appetizers already posted to the Recipezaar database, and I sure hope you enjoy this dish as much as we do. You can use the Thai Ginger-Lime Dipping Sauce included with this recipe, or you can use your own favorite Asian dippping sauce if you like. Even something as simple as a sweet and sour sauce, Asian plum sauce, or a hot sweet mustard also work well as a dipping sauce for these Baked Crab Rangoons.

Time 33m

Yield 12 appetizers, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 wonton wrappers
6 ounces white crab meat, drained
4 ounces low-fat cream cheese, softened
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced onion
2 teaspoons teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon white pepper
3 tablespoons peanuts, finely ground
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chopped
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger (I prefer only 1 tsp)
1 red Thai chile, minced (very hot, so feel free to reduce or omit if you like)

Steps:

  • Prehat the oven to 350°. Lightly spray the bottom of the cups of a muffin tin with a non-stick cooking spray.
  • FILLING - Add the crab meat, cream cheese, chopped green onion, minced onion, teriyaki sauce and white pepper to a small mixing bowl and mix until well blended.
  • Place the wonton wrappers on a flat surface. Add spoonfuls of the crab filling to the center of each wonton wrapper. Take two opposite tips of a wonton wrapper, and bring the tips to meet over the center of the filling. Take the other two opposite tips of the wonton wrapper and bring them to the center. Gently pinch the four tips together. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers.
  • Lift each Crab Rangoon appetizer gently and place one into each of the cups of the coated muffin tin. Bake in a 350° oven for 16-18 minutes or until the tips of the wonton wrappers are lightly browned.
  • DIPPING SAUCE - In the meantime, add all the dipping sauce ingredients to a small bowl and mix until well blended. If you want a thinner sauce, you can place all the dipping sauce ingredients in a food processor and puree or blend for 10 to 20 seconds.
  • When the appetizers are done, remove the pan from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 1 minute. Then carefully lift each baked rangoon and place on a platter.
  • Serve (either warm or at room temperature) with the Thai Ginger-Lime Dipping Sauce.

BAKED CHINESE CRAB RANGOON

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 1 ragoon, 12-17 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 ounce) package low-fat cream cheese
1/4 cup green onion (chopped)
1/4 cup imitation crabmeat (chopped)
2 tablespoons sugar
wonton wrapper

Steps:

  • Mix cream cheese, onions, crab, and sugar together in a bowl.
  • Put about one TBSP of the mixture into the middle of a won ton wrapper and fold the wrapper up around the cream cheese mixture. (Folding doesn't matter as long as the wrapper is around the cream cheese mix).
  • Continue to do this until the all the cream cheese mixtures is used and then put them on a slightly greased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350F for about 12 minutes or until the corners of the won ton wrappers turn brown. I always check them at about 8 and 10 minutes or so, just to make sure.
  • Should make about 15 or so.
  • Happy Baking!

Linda's Baked Crab Rangoon image

These delicious little morsels are to die for! Creamy cheese and crab with lemon. Doesn't get much better than that! Great as an appetizer for any social event, but don't wait until then. Make them for yourself and the family, and see for yourself how DELISH they are alone, or with any kind of dipping sauce you might like. I love them with my recipes for Recipe #270395 and Recipe #206003.

Time 23m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons yellow onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon garlic juice, I used some from a jar of chopped garlic in juice
8 ounces crab or 8 ounces imitation crabmeat, finely chopped
16 wonton wrappers
water
canola oil, to brush on won tons
Chinese duck sauce or plum sauce, for dipping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.

  • Chop the crab finely, or use the blender. Add to cream cheese mixture, and mix in well.
  • Place a heaping teaspoonful of mixture into the center of 8 won ton wrappers.
  • Dip you finger into the water, then rub around the edges of each won ton. Take another won ton wrapper, and wet one side around the edges, and put it on top of the mixture.

  • When done, grease a cookie sheet with oil.
  • Rub each won ton in the grease on the bottom of the cookie sheet, and place each won ton on sheet. When all the won tons are done and on the sheet, brush a little oil on top, so they get nice and crispy around the edge.
  • Put in the oven, and bake for 8-12 minutes, depending on how crispy you like them.
  • When done, place on a layer of paper towels to absorb grease.

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat, drained, flaked
4 ounces PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, softened
2 green onions, thinly sliced
¼ cup KRAFT Light Mayo Reduced Fat Mayonnaise
12 won ton wrappers

  • Bake 18 to 20 min. or until edges of cups are golden brown and filling is heated through.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh crab meat. If you're using frozen crab meat, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overfill the wonton wrappers. Too much filling will make the crab rangoon difficult to fold and seal.
  • To prevent the crab rangoon from sticking to the baking sheet, line the sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Bake the crab rangoon until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that the filling is cooked through.
  • Serve the crab rangoon with your favorite dipping sauce. Sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce, or duck sauce are all good options.

Conclusion:

Crab rangoon is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling and crispy wonton wrapper, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a tasty treat, give crab rangoon a try!
