Crab Rangoon in the Air Fryer
When you use the air fryer, crab rangoon achieves an extra level of crispiness. These bite-sized crab puffs, filled with crab, cream cheese, and spices, are a delightful Chinese-American delicacy.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup seedless apricot fruit spread
- 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce
- 1 tablespoon less-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice (from 1 orange)
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 4 ounces fresh lump crabmeat, drained
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 clove garlic, grated (about 1/2 teaspoon)
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 18 wonton wrappers
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Stir together apricot spread, chili-garlic sauce, soy sauce, orange zest, and orange juice in a small bowl for the dipping sauce.
- Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Stir together cream cheese, crab, chives, Worcestershire, garlic, pepper, and salt in a bowl for the filling. Arrange 6 wonton wrappers on a work surface. Keep remaining wrappers covered until ready to use to prevent them from drying out.
- Spoon about 2 teaspoon crab filling in center of each wrapper. Lightly wet borders of wrapper with water. Bring together the 2 opposite corners of the wrapper over the filling and seal together. Bring remaining 2 corners up toward the center, sealing edges of the wrapper to enclose the filling. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Working in batches if needed, coat dumplings with cooking spray and arrange in an even layer in the air fryer basket.
- Cook until dumplings are crispy and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Serve with sauce.
