Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works great)
- 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Optional: celery sticks and extra ranch for serving
If you’re out of Buffalo sauce, a mix of hot sauce and melted butter can do the trick. And if dairy isn’t your thing, there are plenty of plant-based cheese and cream cheese options these days that work just as well!
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Buffalo sauce, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, and green onions. Mix until everything is well combined and creamy.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture near the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides snugly. Roll up tightly, sealing the top corner with a dab of water.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. You’ll have a dozen perfectly wrapped egg rolls ready to go.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. It’s ready when a small piece of wrapper sizzles and rises to the surface.
- Carefully add the egg rolls, a few at a time, and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Let them cool slightly before serving.
Pro tip: Don’t overcrowd the pot. It lowers the oil’s temperature and can lead to soggy egg rolls. And trust me, crispy is what you want here!
