Ingredients

Scale

Wonton Chips

  • 30 wonton wrappers, sliced in half diagonally
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black sesame seeds (optional)
  • Nonstick cooking spray

Cream Cheese Sauce

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (59.5 g) heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon sesame oil
  • ¼ teaspoon white granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Assembly & Garnish

  • 1 ½ cups imitation crab, chopped
  • 34 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 34 tablespoons garlic chili oil
  • Green onions, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper lightly with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Wonton Chips: Arrange the wonton wrappers in an even layer on the prepared baking sheets. Spray the wrappers lightly with cooking spray, then evenly sprinkle kosher salt and black sesame seeds over them if using.
  3. Bake Wonton Chips: Bake the wonton wrappers in the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes until they turn golden brown and become crispy. Remove from the oven and transfer to a large serving tray.
  4. Make Cream Cheese Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the room temperature cream cheese, heavy cream, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil, granulated sugar, and garlic powder until smooth and creamy.
  5. Assemble Nachos: Evenly top the crispy wonton chips with spoonfuls of the cream cheese sauce. Scatter the chopped imitation crab over the top, then drizzle with sweet chili sauce and garlic chili oil to your taste.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Finish by garnishing the nachos with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy your Crab Rangoon Nachos!

Notes

  • Wonton chips can be baked ahead of time and stored in an airtight container to keep crispy.
  • Use real crab meat instead of imitation crab for a fresher, more authentic flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce and garlic chili oil according to your spice preference.
  • For extra crispiness, flip the wonton wrappers halfway during baking.
  • Make sure cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
