Chicken, bacon, and ranch seasoning create one of my favorite flavor combos! Consequently, I put the three together and packed them into adorable wonton cups to make these tasty Chicken Bacon Ranch Wonton Cups. They are a delicious yet simple appetizer recipe you'll love for entertaining.

Ingredients
24?wonton wrappers
1?cup?chopped cooked chicken
1/2?cup?chopped cooked bacon
1?cup?shredded cheddar cheese
1?cup?Buttermilk Ranch Heluva Good! Dip?plus more to garnish
1/3?cup?chopped red pepper
2?green onions?sliced
salt and pepper to taste
chopped parsley to garnish
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Gently press the wonton wrappers into the mini muffin pan. Bake until the edges of the wontons just start to brown: about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl add the chicken, bacon, cheddar cheese, Buttermilk Ranch Heluva Good! Dip, red pepper, green onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix with a spatula to combine.
Add a heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture to each wonton cup. Return the pan of filled wontons to the oven and bake for another 12-15 minutes or until the wontons are evenly brown.
Garnish with a dollop of Buttermilk Ranch Heluva Good! Dip and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
Notes
Pressing the wonton wrappers into the mini muffin pans can be a bit tricky. If you attempt to just press the wonton wrapper into the cup, it¡¯s going to tear. You want to pinch the wrapper together into a flower shape, insert it into the baking cup, and then gently press it into place. With this method, I had no tears. (Please view the blog post for a photo demonstration.)I found it easiest to add the garnish of ranch dip by using a piping bag (or plastic baggie with the corner cut off). This method is much easier than portioning it off with a spoon.If you don't have access to Buttermilk Ranch Heluva Good! Dip you can make your own. Combine 1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, and about 1.5 tablespoons of ranch seasoning mix. Stir to combine.
