Description

A delightful and crispy appetizer featuring a savory chicken salad served in wonton cups, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 wonton wrappers
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly brush each wonton wrapper with olive oil and press them into a muffin tin to form cups. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped celery, dried cranberries, and chopped pecans.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  5. Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and stir until everything is well coated.
  6. Once the wonton cups are cool, fill each cup with the chicken salad mixture.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding some chopped green onions or herbs to the chicken salad mixture.
  • Make sure to serve them shortly after filling to keep the wonton cups crispy.
  • This recipe can be made ahead by preparing the chicken salad mixture and filling the cups just before serving.
