Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls Flavorful and Easy Recipe
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
- In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce, mixing well until the chicken is fully coated.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Once cooked, remove the egg rolls and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
