How To Make Crab Rangoon Dip
Step 1: First, to make this warm crab dip you are going to add in your cream cheese, yogurt, hot sauce, dried garlic, shredded cheese, mayo, soy sauce, Worcestershire, garlic, and sesame oil together.
Step 2: Secondly, once the crab dip is mixed go ahead and fold in the lump crab meat. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Top with remaining cheese and bake in the oven.
Step 3: Lastly, while the dip is in the oven baking, you can work on your wonton chips. You can deep fry them or do air fryer wonton chips. I share directions for both in the recipe card.
What to Serve With Dip
This hot crab dip has homemade wonton chips that are a breeze to make. Or if you want, skip the chips and serve up salty tortilla chips, crackers, baguettes, or even celery sticks for a lighter option.
Now, this might not be diet friendly, it is totally worth giving yourself a pass for the day, or a cheat day if you want to call it that. Serve up this crab dip and watch happiness spread as each person takes their first bites.
Storage Of Dip
My recipe is a warm dip recipe, so it is best to be served fresh from the oven. If you have leftovers you can store this crab dip in the fridge for 1-3 days.
Eat the leftover dip cold or warm it up for a warm dip! I think you will enjoy this is easy crab rangoon dip that packs so much flavor!
Recipe FAQs
I have been asked before where are the wonton wrappers at the grocery store! At our store, they are in the produce section in the refrigerated section.
Some stores will have them by fresh tofu or even by Asian products. Or if you can’t find fresh, make sure to give your freezer section a gander.
Yes! If you own an Air Fryer
feel free to lay the wonton wrappers in your air fryer (leaving space between so they don’t overlap) and bake them up until they are golden brown. Spritz with oil to give them a golden brown color.
Depending on brand and style, just watch closely so they don’t overcook. I would do a minute and check. That way they don’t overcook.
Once you are done serving it up, put it in the fridge and chill for 2-3 days. You can reheat it in the microwave or even the oven to use as a warm dip again.
If you want to eat the dip cold you can, it will just be a stiffer texture, but still tasty as can be!
Depending on the recipe you will find you can serve dip as a hot appetizer or cold crab dip. This particular Rangoon recipe is meant to be served warm, from the oven.
Soft pretzels, tortilla chips, wonton chips, crackers, fresh crisp vegetables, are all great dippers for this game day dip. Reach for any of your favorite dippers for this dip.
A spoiled crab will have a sour smell to it. Always smell your lump crab before you mix it into a dish. Always use your best judgment in terms of the quality of your seafood before you add to a recipe.
