Ingredients

Scale

Wonton Chips

  • 30 wonton wrappers, sliced in half diagonally
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black sesame seeds, optional

Cream Cheese Sauce

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (59.5 g) heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon sesame oil
  • ¼ teaspoon white granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Toppings

  • 1 ½ cups imitation crab, chopped
  • 34 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 34 tablespoons garlic chili oil
  • Green onions, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Wonton Chips: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the wonton wrappers in an even layer on the baking sheets. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray and sprinkle evenly with kosher salt and optional black sesame seeds. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes until the wonton chips turn golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and transfer to a large serving tray.
  2. Make Cream Cheese Sauce: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil, white granulated sugar, and garlic powder. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Assemble the Nachos: Spoon the cream cheese sauce evenly over the baked wonton chips. Next, sprinkle the chopped imitation crab on top. Drizzle sweet chili sauce and garlic chili oil over the chips for a spicy-sweet flavor infusion. Finally, garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy your Crab Rangoon Nachos!

Notes

  • Wonton wrappers can be found in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores or Asian markets.
  • To make the chips extra crispy, ensure they are in a single layer and not overlapping on the baking sheet.
  • Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce and garlic chili oil to your preferred spice level.
  • Use imitation crab for ease, or substitute with real crab meat for a more authentic flavor.
  • Serve these nachos immediately for the best crunch and flavor.
