Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Filling

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped

Assembly

  • 10–12 egg roll wrappers
  • Water (for sealing wrappers)

Cooking

  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola) or cooking spray if baking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Filling: Mix the shredded cooked chicken with buffalo sauce and softened cream cheese until the cheese melts slightly and the chicken is evenly coated, creating a creamy, spicy mixture.
  2. Add Cheese and Veggies: Fold in shredded cheddar cheese and finely chopped green onions to the buffalo chicken mixture for added gooey texture and fresh flavor.
  3. Assemble the Egg Rolls: Place one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, add a generous spoonful of the filling in the center, then fold and roll tightly. Seal the edges with a little water to keep the filling secure during cooking.
  4. Cook Until Golden and Crispy: Deep fry the egg rolls in hot oil at around 350°F for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, brush the egg rolls with oil and bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes until crispy.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the cooked egg rolls and drain briefly on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the wrappers to ensure easy rolling and crispy edges.
  • Seal edges well with water to prevent leaks during frying or baking.
  • Maintain oil temperature at about 350°F for even frying.
  • Let egg rolls rest for a minute after cooking to avoid burning your mouth.
  • You can assemble and freeze egg rolls before cooking for convenient future snacks.
