Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz. Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 3 oz. canned crab meat
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, separated*
  • 4 diced green onions, separated
  • 12 oz. wonton wraps
  • 1 quart vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Large Bowl
  • Hand Mixer
  • Silicone Spatula
  • Small Baking Dish
  • Dutch Oven or Deep Fryer
  • Oil Thermometer (if available)
  • Paper Towels
  • Kitchen Tongs

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth.
  3. Add the sour cream and soy sauce to the cream cheese and beat until well combined.
  4. Mix in the brown sugar, minced garlic, canned crab meat, half of the Mozzarella cheese, and half of the diced green onions using a silicone spatula.
  5. Transfer the dip to a small baking dish and sprinkle the remaining Mozzarella cheese on top.
  6. Cover the baking dish and bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove the cover and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and begins to brown.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining diced green onions over the dip and serve with wonton chips.
  9. Heat the vegetable oil in a dutch oven or use a deep fryer. If possible, use an oil thermometer to ensure the oil temperature is around 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  10. Cut each wonton wrap in half diagonally.
  11. Fry the wonton halves in batches of 5, using kitchen tongs to lower them into the oil and flipping them as they cook until lightly browned on each side.
  12. Remove the fried wontons from the oil as soon as they turn light golden brown and place them on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt.
  13. Repeat the frying process with the remaining wonton wraps until all are fried.
  14. Serve the crispy wonton chips with the Crab Rangoon Dip and enjoy!

Notes

If Mozzarella cheese is not available, you can use another type of mild, melty cheese as a substitute. Adjust the amount of garlic and soy sauce according to your taste preferences. This dip can also be served with other types of chips or crackers for variety.
