Ingredients

• 1 package Costco frozen wontons (any variety: chicken & cilantro, pork & vegetable, etc.)

• Optional:

  • Olive oil spray for extra crispiness

  • Dipping sauces: soy sauce, sweet chili, sesame dressing, or sriracha

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for 3–4 minutes.

Step 2: Arrange the Wontons

Place frozen wontons in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray. Do not overlap. If using bite-size wontons, leave space between them to allow even cooking.

Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

• Cook at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, shaking or flipping halfway through

• Smaller or thinner wontons may need just 7–8 minutes

• Wontons are ready when golden and crisp outside, and hot all the way through

• Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C)

Step 4: Let Cool & Serve

Allow to rest for 1–2 minutes before serving—they’ll be very hot inside.

Pro Tips for the Best Results

Shake or Flip at the Halfway Mark

This helps them crisp evenly and prevents one side from overcooking.

Lightly Spray with Oil for Extra Crunch

Optional, but useful for achieving that pan-fried crisp without deep frying.

Use a Liner for Easy Cleanup

If your wontons are filled with cheese or other melty ingredients, a parchment liner can prevent mess.

Avoid Overcrowding

Wontons need space for air to circulate—cook in batches if needed.
