Sausage Cream Cheese Wontons Recipe

Ingredients for Sausage Cream Cheese Wontons

• Pork Sausage
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• A.1. Original Sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Approximately 24 wonton wrappers
• Cooking oil for frying (vegetable, canola, or peanut oil)

How to Make Sausage Cream Cheese Wontons

1. Cook 1 pound of sausage (Italian sausage recommended) in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain off any excess grease.
2. Stir in 8 ounces of cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of A1 Steak Sauce, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder. Mix until well combined and creamy.
3. Allow the mixture to cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help prevent the wonton wrappers from breaking.
4. Place 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of the sausage mixture onto the center of each wonton wrapper.
5. Lightly moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with water using your finger or a pastry brush.
6. Fold the wonton wrapper in half to form a triangle, pressing firmly to seal the edges.
7. Fold over the three corners to form an envelope shape, pressing the edges together to seal.
8. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers.
9. Refrigerate the assembled wontons for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up before frying.
10. Deep fry in preheated oil at 350°F (175°C) for 15 seconds per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, pan-fry in a small amount of oil over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
