Wonton wrappers are filled with sweet shrimp and then fried to a crispy golden brown. The Sriracha mayo puts this dish over the top!

If you’re a soy sauce fan, these are equally as delicious dipped in soy sauce. Or you could serve them with both!

1 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce
1 teaspoon lemon juice
WON TONS
5 ounces medium peeled, deveined raw shrimp (36 to 42 per lb.)

Spoon a level 1 tablesppoon filling onto center of each wrapper Using your finger, paint edges of each wrapper with a bit of water. Fold one corner over filling and connect to opposite corner of won ton to form a triangle. Seal edges, pressing out air and squishing filling into corners if needed for fit.
