Chicken Parmesan Wontons

Yields about 48 wontons (or one package of wrappers)

Ingredients

• 8 oz. chicken
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 tsp italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp dried basil
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1.5 C marinara sauce, divided
• 3/4 C shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 C grated parmesan cheese
• 1 package wonton wraps
• cooking spray

Directions

1. In a pan over medium heat, sauté chicken and season with salt and pepper, Italian seasoning, basil, and garlic powder until cooked through. Set aside to cool.
2. Once chicken is cooled, shred using forks or food processer. Note: Do not skip this step, as you will want the chicken to be very “fine” for the filling.
3. Preheat oven to 350 F.
4. In a bowl, mix finely shredded chicken with 1/2 C marina sauce, mozzarella, and parmesan. Stir until well combined.
5. Scoop just less than one tablespoon of mixture onto middle of each wonton wrapper, and seal the edges with water. You will need to play around with the amount to ensure that you can easily seal the edges.
6. Please sealed wontons onto a baking sheet, lined with foil and sprayed with cooking spray. Spray top of wontons with cooking spray as well, to help brown.
7. Cook for 15-20 minutes, checking halfway through. Remove sooner if browning well, or add additional time if they are not. You will want these to be crunchy.
8. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
9. Serve with remaining cup of marinara, for dipping.
