Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Prepare wonton shells. Lightly brush wontons with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange in 24 mini muffin/cupcake cups. Bake 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

Toss shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, 2 teaspoons of lime zest and chile powder. Bake 5-8 minutes until shrimp are opaque throughout.

To assemble, fill each wonton cup with a few leaves of arugula, a small dollop of sour cream, one shrimp then top with a spritz of lime juice.

I have made these several times since finding the recipe on Pinterest. Each time a HUGE hit. Only change I made was adding some chili powder and lime zest to the sour cream. Easy to make and beautiful to present.
