This post may contain affiliate links, please read our privacy policy for details.

This crab rangoon dip takes everything you love about the takeout appetizer and turns it into one warm, cheesy baked dish, no folding or frying individual wontons required. Crab, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and a mix of mozzarella, white cheddar, and Parmesan bake together into a rich, scoopable dip finished with sriracha and green onions.

This one was full of flavor, and honestly surprised me since I am not usually a big seafood person. Even with that, I found myself going back for more.

What You Need for This Dip

  • Imitation crab meat, broken into smaller pieces, is the base of the dip.
  • Cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream create the rich, creamy texture of a ragoon.
  • Green onions add freshness throughout, plus extra for topping.
  • Sriracha sauce brings heat, both mixed in and drizzled on top after baking.
  • Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and garlic powder round out the savory flavor.
  • Mozzarella, white cheddar, and Parmesan get folded in for a melty, cheesy finish.
  • Wonton chips, tortilla chips, or crackers for serving.

How to Make Crab Rangoon Dip

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and grease a 2 and a half quart casserole dish. Add the crab, cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, green onions, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and garlic powder to a mixing bowl and mix well.

Fold in the mozzarella, white cheddar, and Parmesan.

How to Make Wonton Chips

Cut each wonton wrapper into 4 triangles and arrange them in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray and bake at 400 degrees for 5 minutes. Let the chips cool completely before serving, they crisp up more as they cool.

Tips for the Best Crab Rangoon Dip

Chop the crab meat instead of shredding it. Shredded crab tends to create long strands that make dipping messier. Cutting it into smaller pieces gives you a more scoopable texture.

Wonton chips are thin, so plan accordingly. They are delicious with this dip, but the thinness means they can break when you scoop into a thick dip. A spoon to portion the dip onto your chip or plate works better than trying to scoop straight from the dish with the chip itself. Tortilla chips or sturdier crackers are a good option if you want something less delicate.

Let the wonton chips cool completely. They firm up as they cool, so do not serve them straight out of the oven.
