Ingredients
- ½ lb ground chicken
- ¼ lb shrimp (chopped into small pieces)
- 1 stalk scallion (cut into rings)
- ½ teaspoon cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 dash fish sauce (optional)
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 dashes ground white pepper
- 12 pieces wonton wrappers
- water (for sealing)
- oil (for deep frying)
- 4 tablespoons Thai sweet chili sauce
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon cilantro leaves (chopped )

Steps
-
In a bowl, mix the ground chicken, shrimp, scallion, and cornstarch until well combined. Add the salt, fish sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper, and stir to mix well. Set aside.
-
Wrap the wontons using the wonton wrappers by placing a wrapper in your palm. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Dip your index finger in some water and trace it along the outer edges of the wrapper.
-
Fold and pinch the edges of the wonton wrapper to seal it tightly, ensuring there are no openings at the top and that the filling is securely enclosed.
-
Heat some cooking oil in a wok or frying pan and deep-fry the wontons until golden brown.
-
In a small bowl, mix the Dipping Sauce ingredients until well combined.
-
Serve the hot wontons with the sweet chili dipping sauce, or enjoy them plain.
