Instructions
Creating Chicken Egg Rolls is a fun and straightforward process. Follow these steps for a delicious result:
1. Cook Chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground chicken until fully browned.
2. Add Vegetables: Stir in the shredded cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften.
3. Season: Add minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
4. Prepare Wrappers: Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface, oriented like a diamond (point facing you).
5. Fill Wrapper: Place 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture near the center of the wrapper.
6. Fold: Fold the bottom point over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper tightly, sealing the top with a dab of water.
7. Heat Oil: In a pan or deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C) for frying. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) if baking.
8. Fry or Bake: If frying, cook the egg rolls in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. If baking, arrange on a baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray, baking for about 20-25 minutes or until crispy.
9. Drain: Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
10. Serve: Enjoy hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce.
