24 wonton wrappers

Lemon Cream Sauce:
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter
1 cup (250 mL) finely chopped leeks, white and light green parts only
1 tbsp (15 mL) finely grated lemon zest
¾ cup (175 mL) 35% whipping cream
¼ cup (50 mL) reduced-sodium chicken stock
2 tbsp (30 mL) freshly squeezed lemon juice or Vermouth
Salt and freshly ground pepper
