Ingredients

Scale

Buffalo Chicken Filling

  • 1 ½ cups Simple Shredded Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken

Wrap and Cheese

  • 1 pack of 12 mozzarella string cheese sticks
  • 1 pack of 12 egg roll wrappers

Binding and Frying

  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
  • Oil, for frying (about 1 inch deep)

For Serving

  • Buffalo sauce, ranch, and/or blue cheese, to dip
  • Green onion, to garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the buffalo chicken: Make or use pre-made shredded buffalo chicken prepared in a slow cooker, ensuring it is well-drained to avoid soggy wrappers.
  2. Heat the oil: Pour about 1 inch of oil into a high-walled, heavy-bottomed pan and heat it over medium-high until it reaches 350°F or bubbles form around the handle of a wooden spoon inserted into the oil.
  3. Make the egg wash and prepare wrappers: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and a tablespoon of water. Keep the egg roll wrappers covered with a damp cloth or paper towel to prevent drying as you work.
  4. Assemble the logs: Place one egg roll wrapper on the counter positioned like a diamond. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of buffalo chicken down the center, letting excess sauce drip off. Place one mozzarella string cheese stick on top of the chicken.
  5. Fold the wrapper: Fold the top corner down, then the bottom corner up over the filling. Brush the egg wash along the right side edge. Fold the left side over the filling and tuck the corner under like a burrito. Roll it over to seal the egg roll, using the egg wash to glue edges together, and ensure there are no gaps or tears.
  6. Repeat: Continue assembling until all 12 egg rolls are made.
  7. Fry the logs: When the oil is hot, place 3 egg rolls seam-side down into the oil. Fry until golden and crisp, turning to brown evenly, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  8. Serve: Serve warm with buffalo sauce, ranch, and/or blue cheese for dipping, garnished with sliced green onion.

Notes

  • Ensure the buffalo chicken is not too wet to prevent soggy wrappers.
  • Use a thermometer for accurate oil temperature to avoid greasy or undercooked rolls.
  • Keep assembled egg rolls covered if not frying immediately to prevent drying.
  • Drain the egg rolls well after frying to maintain crispiness.
  • Can be baked as a lower-fat alternative but frying ensures maximum crispness.
