Description

These Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls are a crispy, flavorful appetizer combining the classic spicy buffalo chicken dip with crunchy egg roll wrappers. Filled with shredded chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch or blue cheese dressing, and cheddar cheese, these egg rolls can be fried, baked, or air fried to golden perfection, making them a versatile and crowd-pleasing snack for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or leftover)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped

Assembly

  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • Small bowl of water for sealing

Cooking

  • Vegetable or canola oil for frying
  • Cooking spray for baking or air frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: Combine shredded chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch or blue cheese dressing, shredded cheddar cheese, and finely chopped green onions in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are creamy and evenly incorporated.
  2. Fill the Wrappers: Lay one egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the buffalo chicken filling into the center of the wrapper.
  3. Roll the Egg Rolls: Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the side corners. Roll tightly away from you towards the top corner. Moisten the top corner with water to seal the egg roll securely. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  4. Fry Method: Heat 2 inches of vegetable or canola oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until they turn golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  5. Bake Method: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the egg rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and lightly spray them with cooking spray. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden and crispy.
  6. Air Fry Method: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (205°C). Arrange the egg rolls in a single layer in the basket, making sure they are not touching. Lightly spray them with cooking spray and air fry for 8-10 minutes, turning once halfway through, until crispy and browned.
  7. Rest and Serve: Allow the egg rolls to cool for 5 minutes after cooking. Serve warm with extra buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

Notes

  • You can customize the spiciness by adjusting the amount of buffalo sauce used in the filling.
  • Use egg roll wrappers for the classic crispy texture, but won ton wrappers can also be used for a thinner, crunchier result.
  • If baking, spraying the egg rolls lightly with cooking spray helps achieve a crispy exterior similar to frying.
  • Leftover cooked chicken such as rotisserie or previously cooked grilled chicken works great in this recipe.
  • For a healthier option, opt to bake or air fry instead of deep frying.
  • Always allow egg rolls to cool slightly before eating to avoid burning your mouth with hot filling.
