I got this recipe from a cookbook called Best American Recipes. The time for preparing and cook are a guess. Chill time is not included in prep. time. They cook in about 3-4 minutes.
Ingredients:
16 ounces shredded monterey jack cheese (4 cups)
2/3 cup diced green chilis
1/3 cup diced jalapeno pepper
1 (1 lb) package wonton skins
peanut oil
salt
Directions:
1. Combine the cheese with both peppers; stir well.
2. Prepare 1 wonton skin at a time.
3. Spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons of cheese/chile mixture in the center of wonton skin.
4. Lightly moisten the edge of the wonton skin and fold in half to make a triangle pressing edges to seal.
5. Repeat with remaining wonton skins and cheese mixture.
6. Chill for 20 minutes.
7. Heat peanut oil to 375*.
8. Fry wontons in hot oil until golden brown, turning once.
9. Drain on paper towel and sprinkle with salt.
10. Serve with avocado dip.
