Baked Wontons
10 min4 servings

These baked wontons are filled with seasoned pork and turkey, then baked until crispy. They're easy to prepare in advance, and can be frozen for a convenient make-ahead appetizer or snack.

Ingredients
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 pound extra-lean ground turkey
1 small onion, chopped
1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup egg substitute
1-1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 package (12 ounces) wonton wrappers
Cooking spray
Sweet-and-sour sauce, optional
Instructions
1 Make the filling
2 In a large skillet, cook the pork, turkey and onion over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink. Drain the grease and transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the water chestnuts, soy sauce, egg substitute and ginger. Editor's Tip: Letting your filling cool slightly will make it easier to wrap the wontons.
3 Fold the wontons
4 Position a wonton wrapper with one point toward you. Keep the remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel until ready to use. Place 2 heaping teaspoons of filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling (like a burrito), then fold the sides toward the center over the filling. Roll toward the remaining point. Moisten the top corner with water and press to seal it. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Editor's Tip: Set up a wonton folding station on a large cutting board (or other flat surface) with your wrappers and a small bowl of water for sealing the wontons. Also, try to avoid overstuffing your wontons, which will make them harder to fold.
5 Bake the wontons
6 Place the wontons on baking sheets coated with cooking spray, and lightly coat them with additional cooking spray. Bake them at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes or until they're golden brown, turning them once. Serve the wontons warm, with sweet-and-sour sauce, if desired.
