Let’s Make Chicken Egg Roll

1. Egg Roll Wrapper/ Skin

First, Prepare the Egg Roll Skin
To kick things off, combine all the skin ingredients in a mixing bowl. Mix them thoroughly until well combined. To ensure a smooth texture, strain the mixture into a measuring cup.
Second, Cook the Egg Roll Skin
Moving on, heat a non-stick pan over low heat. Pour the batter into the pan and evenly distribute it. Allow it to cook until the skin is set and cooked through. Once done, set it aside.
2. Chicken Egg Roll Mixture

To begin, prepare a big bowl, mix chicken thigh with all the ingredients until well combined. To make it easier to work with, divide the mixture into 5-6 equal parts.

Secondly, let’s assemble these delectable treats. Lay the egg roll skin/ Wrapper that we had made before on flat working surface, place the chicken mixture on top then fold both ends of the side inward then roll the egg roll skin over the chicken mixture and continue until everything is rolled up and tucked inside.
To ensure your egg rolls stay intact, apply some of the chicken mixture on the tip of the egg roll skin to securely seal them. Once sealed, wrap each chicken egg roll with plastic wrap. Then, place them in the freezer for a minimum of 6 hours to firm up and set. Mine is overnight.

Then, When the time comes to enjoy your egg rolls, start by slicing them to your desired thickness. Finally, cook them over medium heat until they turn a beautiful golden color. You can fry them all or just slice and stock up the rest for next time it’s fine.

Voila! Make sure to rest cooked crispy chicken egg roll on a cooling rack to remove excess oil. Serve while the chicken egg rolls are still warm. Best served with some dipping sauce, here I use what I got mayonnaise and chili sauce, Well I think sweet spicy Thai sauce will be perfect or anything sauce that you love. Enjoy with your family as an appetizer or snack, some times I eat them as a side dish with rice LOL!
