# What You Need:

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
02 - 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
04 - 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

→ Egg Rolls
09 - 12 egg roll wrappers
10 - 1 egg, beaten
11 - vegetable oil, for frying
# How to Make It:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken breast, buffalo wing sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, crumbled blue cheese, chopped celery, green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until fully incorporated.
02 - Place one egg roll wrapper on a clean work surface with a corner facing you. Spoon approximately 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling into the center. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with beaten egg to seal the edge.
03 - Continue assembling the remaining egg rolls with the filling and wrappers, sealing the edges with the egg wash.
04 - Pour vegetable oil into a deep-frying pot or heavy-bottomed pan to a depth of 2 inches, and heat to 350°F.
05 - Working in batches, add egg rolls to the hot oil and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, turning as needed, until golden brown and crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
06 - Arrange the egg rolls on a platter and serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- They have that satisfying, noisy crunch everyone looks for in party food.
- The filling is creamy and spicy but never messy like wings—no orange fingers here.
02 -
- If your oil isn’t hot enough, you’ll end up with soggy, greasy egg rolls—use a thermometer if you have one.
- Letting the filling cool slightly before rolling prevents melty cheese from seeping out during frying.
03 -
- Chill the filling briefly before rolling to get neater, cleaner egg rolls that fry evenly.
- Add a tiny sprinkle of salt right after frying for even more flavor.
