Layered Sweet and Sour Asian Dip with Fried Wonton Dippers

 I’m in full tailgate recipe development mode! This year, we need a little pizzazz in our regular tailgating recipes, so I decided to try recipes early.

I developed this Layered Sweet and Sour Asian Dip with fried wonton dippers and couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. It’s everything a dip should be: creamy, tangy, and with a little crunch from the veggies on top.

Ingredients and Subs

I used a rotisserie chicken, but this recipe would be a great way to use leftover chicken. You could even use canned chicken if you desire.

I also used a store-bought sweet and sour sauce. As I said, I wanted a super delicious but very easy recipe. Tailgating recipes should be easy and delicious!

With rotisserie chicken, cook time on this appetizer recipe is low. You can use any leftover chicken, but I love a rotisserie chicken.

Layer the ingredients in a large, shallow dish, heat through, and you’re ready to serve.

It’s just that quick!

 This dip is great for any party or potluck function. It also makes a great game-day appetizer because it’s so unique. You won’t have to worry about someone showing up with the same dip (most likely).

I love this with fried wonton wrappers, but if you don’t have time to fry them (they are time-consuming), purchase tortilla chips instead.

Sweet and Sour Asian Dip Final Thoughts

• This is a great recipe to use leftover chicken, light, or dark meat.
• You can also use a rotisserie, grilled, broiled, or canned chicken in this recipe.
• You can also substitute pork for the chicken.
• If you’re not a big fan of water chestnuts, omit them or use fewer.
• This dip can be served hot or at room temperature.
