Thanksgiving Leftover Recipe Turkey Rangoon Wontons With Cranberry Salsa

THANKSGIVING LEFTOVER WONTONS WITH CRANBERRY SALSA

Steps:

• Pour the lemon juice over the dried cranberries in a bowl; set aside. Mix the turkey, stuffing, cream cheese, and turkey gravy in a separate bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Place a wonton wrapper on a work surface; spoon about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Moisten two opposite edges of the wrapper with a finger dipped in water, fold the wrapper in half the long way, and press the edges together with a fork. Sprinkle the wrapper with salt. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers.
• Heat the canola oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat; pan-fry the filled wontons in batches until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Drain the fried wontons on paper towels; allow to cool for about 5 minutes to set the filling.
• Drain the lemon juice from the dried cranberries. Place cranberries into a food processor; pulse several times until the cranberries are finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the onion, lime juice, jalapeno pepper, garlic, and water. Serve with the hot fried wontons.

THANKSGIVING LEFTOVER RECIPE - TURKEY RANGOON WONTONS WITH CRANBERRY SALSA

Steps:

• To prepare, heat oil over medium high heat in a large deep skillet, or use a turkey fryer. In a small serving dish, mix cranberry sauce, onions, jalapeno peppers to desired heat (optional), and garlic.
• Mix turkey, stuffing, cream cheese, and gravy in a medium bowl.
• Place about 1 T of the mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper and add in a dash of seasoning to taste. I used Chef Nikki's Pro Seasoning. Wet edges of each wrapper lightly with water, layer another wonton wrapper over the first, and press the edges with a fork to seal.
• Place a single layer of won tons in the skillet or fryer. Heat for about 3-5 minutes, until lightly golden brown, flipping once halfway through. Remove with a large spatula onto plate covered with paper towels. Repeat for remaining won tons.
• Let sit for a few minutes and serve while warm with a side of cranberry salsa.
