Keema Samosas

Ingredients:
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp. garam masala
  • 3/4 tsp. curry powder
  • 1/4 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 1 lb. ground skinless chicken breast
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 34 (3-inch) square wonton wrappers
Makes 17 Servings (2 samosas per serving)
  1. To make filling, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, jalapeno, and garlic; cook until onion begins to soften, about 4 minutes. Stir in garam masala, curry powder, and turmeric; cook 30 seconds. Add chicken and sprinkle with salt; cook, breaking up chicken with wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; let cool 10 minutes. Stir in cilantro and lime juice. 
  2. Preheat oven to 425 F. Spray baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  3. Place 6 wonton wrappers on work surface. Put scant 1 tablespoon of filling in center of each wrapper. Moisten edges of wrappers with water. Fold each wrapper over filling to form triangle. Press edges firmly to seal. Place samosas on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers, making a total of 34 samosas.
  4. Lightly spray samosas with nonstick spray. Bake until crisp and golden, about 6 minutes per side.

You can also use ground turkey in these samosas and they will still be delicious. These Indian treats are filled with protein, plenty of spices and flavor. Samosas also make a great party food because they freeze easily. These Indian dishes will quickly become a favorite after eating just one.
