These crispy buffalo chicken dip wontons are a delicious and addictive game day snack featuring a spicy, creamy buffalo chicken filling wrapped in a crunchy wonton shell.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or leftover roasted)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • About 40 wonton wrappers
  • Vegetable or canola oil for frying
  • Optional garnishes: chopped green onions, blue cheese crumbles, ranch or extra buffalo sauce

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 8 oz softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup ranch dressing, and 1/2 cup buffalo sauce. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  2. Fold in 2 cups shredded cooked chicken, 1 cup shredded cheddar, and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Lay out wonton wrappers on a clean surface, keeping them covered with a damp towel to prevent drying out. Have a small bowl of water ready to seal the edges.
  4. Place about 1 tablespoon of the buffalo chicken dip mixture in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, then fold the wrapper into a triangle or purse shape, pressing firmly to seal without air pockets.
  5. Pour vegetable or canola oil into a deep skillet to about 1 inch depth. Heat over medium-high until oil reaches about 350°F (175°C).
  6. Fry wontons in batches without crowding, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  7. Serve warm with optional garnishes like chopped green onions or a drizzle of ranch or extra buffalo sauce.

Notes

Keep wonton wrappers covered with a damp towel to prevent drying out. Use a thermometer to maintain oil temperature at 350°F to avoid greasy or burnt wontons. For a lighter version, air fry at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway. Do not overfill wrappers to prevent leaks. Store leftovers in an airtight container with paper towels and reheat in oven or air fryer for best crispiness.
