Shrimp Wontons - Super easy recipe with fresh shrimp wrapped with wonton skin and then boiled/steamed to be served with ginger vinegar sauce. So yummy! While many people enjoy crispy fried wontons, many have also asked for a good steamed wonton recipe. I love these shrimp wontons because they include my favorite protein, shrimp. Shrimp is such a versatile choice for many recipes, and I especially enjoy how they taste in these wontons. I rummaged through my fridge today and found some leftover wonton skins and whipped up these wontons with dipping sauces: ginger vinegar sauce. They were simply delicious. I love steamed wontons because it makes them extremely juicy, and you can really taste the filling.
