Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup corn kernels
• 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
• 24 won ton wrappers
• Oil for frying
• Salsa or guacamole, for serving

Directions

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent.
2. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through.
3. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
4. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the black beans, corn, and shredded cheese until well combined.
5. Lay out the won ton wrappers on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each wrapper.
6. Using your finger or a brush, moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle and press the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
7. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat. Carefully place a few won tons in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
8. Serve the crispy Mexican won tons with salsa or guacamole for dipping. Enjoy!
