Ingredients
Scale
Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls
- 1 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce plus more for serving
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons dried parsley
- 2 teaspoons dried dill
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- kosher salt to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 20-22 square egg roll wrappers
- olive oil for brushing
Cilantro Lime Ranch
- 1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- juice from 2 limes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease two baking sheets to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, chopped chives, dried parsley, dried dill, onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of kosher salt. Stir in shredded cheddar and crumbled blue cheese until well mixed.
- Assemble the egg rolls: Place approximately 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto each egg roll wrapper. Brush water around the edges of the wrapper to help seal, then carefully roll up and place on the prepared baking sheets. Lightly brush each egg roll with olive oil to aid in crisping.
- Bake the egg rolls: Bake the egg rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Then, flip them over and continue baking for another 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp.
- Make the cilantro lime ranch: While the egg rolls bake, combine sour cream or Greek yogurt, chopped cilantro, chopped chives, garlic powder, onion powder, and lime juice in a jar or bowl. Shake or stir until creamy and well blended.
- Serve: Remove the egg rolls from the oven and serve warm with the cilantro lime ranch on the side and additional buffalo sauce if desired.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, brush the egg rolls with olive oil before baking.
- You can substitute plain Greek yogurt with sour cream for a tangier flavor.
- Adjust buffalo sauce amount to your preferred spice level.
- Make sure to seal the egg rolls tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
- If egg roll wrappers are unavailable, spring roll wrappers can serve as a substitute but may require different baking time.
