Crab Rangoon Nachos
Layer a creamy crab mixture and grated cheese on top of crispy wonton chips for this creative twist.
Ingredients
- 300 grams Square Wonton Wrappers thawed completely if frozen
- 1 can Non-Stick Spray any type works
- 280 grams Imitation Crab 10 ounces
- 8 oz Cream Cheese softened
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 2 cups Monterrey Jack Cheese grated
- 1 large Green Onion finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds optional garnish
- ⅓ cup Sweet Chili Sauce for serving
Instructions
Making the Wonton Chips
- Preheat your oven to 400F with a rack in the middle position. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. You can use 2 baking trays, or make them in batches.
- Cut the square wonton wrappers diagonally in half. Cover the prepared baking tray with a single flat layer of halved wrappers.
- Spray the top of each piece with non-stick spray. Place in the preheated 400F oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn over every piece.
- Spray them with non stick spray and place back into the oven for 3-5 minutes. Keep an eye on them because they will take on color pretty quickly depending on your oven fan speed. Take out when lightly golden, and not too dark.
- Repeat the previous steps in order to have a total of 2 sheet pans worth of wonton chips for the nachos.
Making the Crab Rangoon Nachos
- Pull apart or chop up the imitation crab in small pieces. Place ¾ of the crab in a small bowl and add to it, the softened cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Mix with a rubber spatula or spoon until smooth.
- Place all of your prepared wonton chips on 1 baking tray. Spread them out to that there is not too much overlapping, without being able to see the tray through the chips.
- With 2 small spoons, place little mounds of the crab mixture evenly over the surface of the wonton chips, until all used up.
- Sprinkle 1½ cups of the grated cheese over the nachos. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ of the imitation crab on top of the cheese. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of grated cheese on top.
- Place the prepared tray of nachos into your 400F oven for 5-10 minutes. Nothing needs to bake through. This is just to melt the cheese and to make sure the cream cheese mixture is heated through.
- Remove from the oven and transfer to a large serving tray. Sprinkle the top of the hot nachos with the finely chopped green onion and sesame seeds.
- Serve with Sweet Chili Sauce and enjoy hot!
