Instructions
Egg Roll Filling
- Roughly chop rotisserie chicken, prep additional ingredients by rinsing black beans, shredding cheese, roughly chopping spinach, cilantro, red pepper, onion, green onion, and draining corn.
- In a saute' pan with 1 teaspoon of cooking oil, add red pepper, corn, cilantro, onion, black beans, green onion and onion.
- Saute' until veggies become soft and translucent. Add smoked salt (optional), pepper, taco seasoning, harissa rub, rotisserie chicken and stir until well blended.
- Add spinach, spicy pepper jack, cream cheese and mozzarella. Stir until the cheese starts to melt and ingredients will begin to start clumping together. Set filling aside and let cool (at least 30 minutes).
Egg Roll Assembly
- After filling has cooled, take one sheet/square of egg roll paper and place on a dry surface so that the shape of the square faces you
- In the center, place between 2-3 tablespoons of filling diagonal to the shape of the egg roll wrapper and ensure filling is spread evenly in the center. Be mindful to leave 1-2 inches of room on both sides for better wrapping.
- With your finger or small brush, add water to the perimeter of the pastry dough-this will help seal the ends.
- Fold the egg roll like a burrito folding in the bottom right corner first and folding the left and right sides next.
- At this step, you should have one "flap" left. Tightly but gently roll until there's no flap let and you should have a perfectly rolled egg roll!
- How you cook the egg rolls are up to you and what gadgets you have. I fried mine in about a cup of oil until golden brown but you can bake these or air fry them too!
Avocado Ranch Dipping Sauce
- In a bowl, place avocado, mayo, ranch seasoning, lime judge, milk and sriracha and stir until creamy and well combined. Adjust to your tasting and refrigerate.
