CRISPY ITALIAN WONTONS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a large baking sheet with a good amount of cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, pesto, peppers and mozzarella. Place wonton wrappers on prepared baking sheet so wontons become saturated with oil. Place 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture onto center of each wrapper. Dip a finger into water and use it to moisten edges of wrapper; fold over one corner of wrapper to make a triangle and press sides together to create a seal. (If desired, create decorative lines along edges of wontons by pressing tines of a fork along bottom edge of each wonton.) Bake until wontons are golden brown on edges and dough is just cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
