Lunch: Bacon Cheeseburger Dumpling

Ingredients

2 cups medium sharp Cheddar, shredded
1/3 pound thin-cut bacon, half the fat removed, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 large red onion, diced
8 ounces 80/20 ground beef
40 wonton wrappers
Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

Thoroughly combine the Cheddar, bacon, salt, pepper and onions in a medium mixing bowl using your hands. Add in the beef and combine well.
Roll out your wonton wrappers. Place a dollop of the filling into the center of each wonton using a tablespoon measure. Fold over the ends to make an enclosed envelope, and then secure by either scalloping or pressing the prongs of a fork into the edge.
Heat some vegetable oil in a saute pan.
Place the dumplings in a single layer in a large frying pan (you may need to work in batches). Add a few tablespoons water and heat slowly, covered, until the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Uncover and add 1 tablespoon of the hot oil to fry the bottoms of the dumplings.
Enjoy!
