Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup lump crab meat drained and picked over for shells
  • 1/4 cup green onions finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 package 14 ounces wonton wrappers
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Sweet and sour sauce for serving

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, lump crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  2. Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture in the center of each wrapper.
  3. Moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with water. Fold the wrappers over the filling to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal tightly.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F.
  5. Carefully add a few crab rangoon bites to the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bites from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. Serve the crispy crab rangoon bites warm with sweet and sour sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • For a spicy kick, add a teaspoon of sriracha or hot sauce to the crab mixture.
  • You can bake the crab rangoon bites instead of frying. Preheat the oven to 375°F, place the filled wontons on a baking sheet, brush with oil, and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
