Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place cooked chicken cubes in a food processor. Pulse until chicken resembles crumbs. Add shredded Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese and jalapeno cream cheese. Pulse 2 or 3 times until mixed. If mixture appears dry, add more cream cheese, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Step 3

Place a heaping teaspoon of chicken-cheese mixture on the bottom corner of a wonton wrapper. Leave a 1/2 inch border around wonton. Brush the edges with water and fold over opposite corner to form a triangle. Press to seal edges. Repeat for all wontons.

Step 4

Place wontons on prepared baking sheet. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Turn; lightly spray other side of wontons with cooking spray.

Step 5

Bake in preheated oven until the edges turn brown, 8 or 9 minutes.

Step 6

Serve warm with salsa or soy sauce.
