egg rolls
Ingredients
- 1½ cup rotisserie chicken shredded
- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 cup canned black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 cup frozen sweet corn thawed
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- ¼ cup yellow onion diced
- 2 tablespoons jalapenos chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
- 2 tablespoons taco seasonings
- ½ tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Chopped parsley to garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer to 400 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken, cream cheese, black beans, corn, cheddar cheese, onion, jalapenos, cilantro, taco seasoning, and lime juice. Mix it until everything comes together.
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a cutting board, and wet the edges of the wrapper with water.
- Add 2-3 tablespoons of prepared chicken mixture to the center of the egg roll wrapper. Roll once and fold the side ends inwards. Now tightly roll the wrapper and seal the edges.
- Brush the egg rolls generously with olive oil and place them in the Air Fryer basket.
- Cook for 12-15 minutes by flipping the egg rolls halfway through and cook further until the egg rolls turn golden and crispy.
- Once done, garnish the egg rolls with fresh parsley and serve while it is still warm.
Notes
- Don’t overfill the wrappers.
- Press and seal the edges of the egg rolls with water to prevent the filling from coming out.
- Most air fryers can fit about six egg rolls at a time. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer, and cook in batches if necessary.
- If cooking in batches, keep the remaining eggrolls covered with a damp paper towel. Cooked egg rolls can be kept warm in a low oven.
- Flip halfway through the cooking time.
- The egg rolls will crisp up as they cool, so don’t worry if they aren’t as crispy as you expected when you first pull them from the air fryer.
- Serve with a spicy Southwestern ranch dressing or cool and creamy avocado ranch for dipping.
- Air frying times can vary based on the make and model of your air fryer.
