Fried BBQ Chicken Pouches

• 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Premium Chunk Chicken
• 1/2 cups Shredded Cheddar
• 1/4 cups Onion, Minced
• 1/2 cups Your Favorite BBQ Sauce, Plus Extra For Dipping
• 1 package (24-count Package) Square Wonton Wrappers
• 1 whole Egg, Beaten With Water For Egg Wash
• 3 cups Oil, For Frying

1. In a large bowl mix chicken, cheddar, onion and sauce together well.
2. If your chicken is particularly chunky, use a pastry cutter to mince everything down.
3. Lay out a few wrappers on a flat surface, making sure to keep the others covered so they dont dry out.
4. Drop a rounded teaspoon of chicken filling into the middle of each wrapper.
5. Brush all four sides of the wrapper with a little egg wash and bring the sides up around the chicken mixture to form a purse.
6. Squeeze the edges together so that they are sealed.
7. Continue until all chicken purses are finished.
8. Heat oil over medium high heat in a large, heavy, deep vessel such as a deep-sided cast iron skillet.
9. The oil should come no more than halfway up the sides, but also be able to submerge a purse in the oil.
10. Heat to 350 degrees F or until a piece of dough immediately sizzles when dropped in the oil.
11. If the oil starts to smoke, lower the heatits a little too hot.
12. Drop each purse into the oil (no more than 5 at a time) and fry until golden brown.
13. Drain on paper towels.
14. Continue until all the pouches are done.
15. Serve with extra BBQ sauce for dipping!
