Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
  • 0.5 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers
  • as needed oil for frying (e.g., vegetable or canola oil)
  • as desired serving ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce, mixing well until the chicken is fully coated.
  2. Add the softened cream cheese to the chicken mixture and stir until combined. Next, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and sliced green onions. This will create a flavorful filling.
  3. Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface with a corner facing you (like a diamond shape). Place about 2 tablespoons of the buffalo chicken mixture in the center of the wrapper.
  4. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, sealing the top corner with a little water to help it stick. Repeat this with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  5. In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (about 350°F or 175°C), carefully add egg rolls a few at a time, avoiding overcrowding.
  6. Fry the egg rolls for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to flip them halfway through.
  7. Once cooked, remove the egg rolls and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  8. Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

💡 Chef's Notes
