Time 42m

Yield 50

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
50 wonton wrappers
3 (12 fluid ounce) bottles tzatziki sauce
2 (8 ounce) packages feta cheese, crumbled
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts in a pot; cover with 1 inch water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 10 to 14 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Drain chicken and cool until easily handled, 5 to 10 minutes. Cut into small cubes.
  • Place chicken cubes in a blender; blend until easily scooped with a tablespoon.
  • Lay wonton wrappers on a flat work surface. Brush 1 teaspoon tzatziki sauce over the center of each wrapper. Top with 1 teaspoon chicken and 1 teaspoon feta cheese. Fold over and seal edges.
  • Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl. Brush over top of wontons.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry wontons in batches until golden brown, about 2 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs, vegetables, and cheese will give your wontons the best flavor.
  • Don't overstuff the wontons: Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and seal.
  • Seal the wontons tightly: Make sure there are no gaps in the seal, or the filling will leak out during cooking.
  • Cook the wontons in batches: Don't overcrowd the pot, or the wontons will stick together and cook unevenly.
  • Serve the wontons immediately: Wontons are best when served hot and fresh.
