directions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by spraying with nonstick spray and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken with salsa and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Drain any excess liquid from the chicken mixture. Add cheese, corn, and roasted red peppers to the bowl. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
  • Lay two wrappers flat on a clean, dry surface. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of chicken mixture onto each wrapper, and spread it evenly over the entire surface. Roll wonton up tightly into a cigar-shaped tube. Place on the baking sheet, seam side down. If needed, secure with a toothpick. Repeat with remaining wontons and chicken mixture.
  • Bake until crispy, about 15 minutes.
  • Allow to cool slightly. Remove toothpicks, if using. Then serve and, if you like, dunk in the optional dips!
