Spicy Wonton Taco Bowls
Share
If you’re looking for an appetizer that disappears the second it hits the table, this is it.
These crispy little wonton taco cups are everything we love about taco night — bold flavor, a little heat, lots of texture — all wrapped up in a bite-sized package. They’re easy, crowd-friendly, and endlessly customizable, which makes them perfect for game day, casual entertaining, or those “what can I make that feels fun?” nights.
The secret here is Baklouti Pepper Olive Oil. It adds a fresh, chili warmth right from the start when you sauté the onions and beef, building flavor without overpowering the spices. The heat is subtle, balanced, and plays beautifully with cumin, chili powder, and melted cheddar.
The crisp wonton shells give you that satisfying crunch, the seasoned beef brings the comfort, and the toppings let everyone make them their own. Serve them warm, set out a few extra toppings, and watch how fast they vanish.
Trust me — you might want to make a double batch.

Ingredients
-
24 wonton wrappers
-
1/2 pound ground beef
-
1 tablespoon Baklouti Pepper Olive Oil
-
1/2 cup diced onions
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon chili powder
-
1/2 teaspoon paprika
-
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
1/2 cup salsa
-
Sour cream, for garnish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard muffin tin with Baklouti Olive Oil.
Press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, gently shaping it to form a bowl.
Bake for 5–7 minutes, until the wonton wrappers are golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the Baklouti Olive Oil and diced onions. Sauté until the onions are soft and translucent.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula.
Stir in the cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant and well combined.
Spoon the seasoned beef mixture into each baked wonton cup.
Sprinkle the tops with shredded cheddar cheese and return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Remove from the oven and top each taco cup with a spoonful of salsa.
Finish with a dollop of sour cream and any additional toppings you like. Serve warm.
