Why You’ll Love Thai Golden Bags
These are sooo cute… but looks aren’t everything here. They are insanely delicious. I used Chipotle Mayonnaise and it was amazing… I love the creamy smokiness it adds, plus it is so versatile!
How To Prepare Thai Golden Bags
🦐 First, chop the shrimp pretty small into a paste
🧄 Secondly, add shrimp to a bowl with the scallions, garlic, ginger, cilantro, sesame oil, lemon zest, rice vinegar, chipotle mayo, salt and pepper. Then, mix well and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
🍤 Place some of the shrimp mixture inside the wonton wrappers, about 1 tsp of the shrimp mixture. Form the little bags. Then, tie carefully with a chive.
🥑 Spray avocado oil on a baking sheet, carefully place the little bags in the baking sheet and spray avocado oil on them.
🔥 Bake at 400F for 20-25 minutes or until fully golden.
🌟 Lastly, mix together everything for the sauce.
❤️ Enjoy!
