Won-Ton Fun

And by "fun" I mean "time-consuming and I'll need a darn good reason to make again." Delicious, but I might be too lazy for this sort of thing. So much work! They really were good, though, and got rave reviews from the family. They requested, that for next time, perhaps I could fry them? NO DEAL. UNLESS YOU STUFF THEM, FAMILY, 'CAUSE I AIN'T.

Ahem.

Back to business. Without further ado, won-ton soup!

Won-Ton Soup

1 cup torn cooked chicken (roasted, grilled, poached...)
1/2 carrot shredded
4 green onions, sliced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

24 Won-Ton wrappers

Egg wash

1/2 cup snow peas

4 cups chicken stock

Mix the chicken, carrots, green onions, ginger and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper.


To assemble:


Lay one wrapper flat,brush with egg wash, spoon a heaping tablespoon of the mixture in the middle, fold corner to corner and crimp closed. Eat the remainder of the mix.



Delicious potential

 Set the chicken stock to boil, then lower heat to a simmer.
Add the won tons and simmer until cooked. Add the snow peas in the last minute of cooking.





Check it, this was yummy. But it is a lot of work. So this is going into the 'special occasion' category. Unless someone has an easier way?
