Description

Delicious baked wonton cups filled with seasoned ground chicken, marinara sauce, and a blend of cheeses.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground chicken (Ensure it is Halal-compliant)
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • to taste fresh basil for garnish (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly spray a muffin tin with cooking spray and gently press each wonton wrapper into the muffin cups, creating a small ‘cup’ shape.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the ground chicken until it’s fully cooked and no longer pink. Season it with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  4. Stir in the marinara sauce with the cooked chicken, ensuring all the meat is coated in the sauce.
  5. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture into each wonton cup.
  6. Sprinkle a mix of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the top of each filled cup.
  7. Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the wontons are golden brown.
  8. Once done, remove the cups from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and garnish with fresh basil if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure to check the labels for Halal compliance on the ground chicken and other ingredients.
  • Customize the level of cheese to your preference by adjusting the mozzarella and Parmesan ratio.
