Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Oven safe baking dish
  • 1 Frying Pan
  • 1 Electric Hand Mixer

Ingredients

For the Crab Rangoon Dip

  • 16 oz imitation crab meat shredded
  • 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 cups mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions more for garnish
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese divided
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese divided

For the Wonton Chips

  • 1/2 cup neutral oil such as avocado, vegetable or canola
  • 1 12 oz package wonton wrappers
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the oven and baking dish. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly coat an oven-safe baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Make the creamy base. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sriracha, garlic powder and sugar. Mix until fully combined.
  • Add the crab and cheese. Fold in the shredded crab, green onions, 1½ cups mozzarella and ½ cup Parmesan.
  • Assemble the dip. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining ½ cup mozzarella and ½ cup Parmesan.
  • Bake until bubbly. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until hot and bubbling around the edges. For a golden top, broil for 2–3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Cut the wonton wrappers. While the dip bakes, cut each wonton wrapper in half diagonally to create triangles.
  • Fry the wonton chips. Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350–370°F. Working in small batches, fry the wonton triangles for 25–30 seconds, turning as needed, until lightly golden and crisp.
  • Drain and season. Transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with salt. Repeat with as many wonton wrappers as desired.
  • Serve. Garnish the warm dip with additional green onions, if desired, and serve with the crispy wonton chips.
