Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 10–12 egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying (or cooking spray for baking)
Preparation Steps
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, and mozzarella cheese.
- Add the cream cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined and creamy.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape. Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of the filling into the center.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly upward. Seal the edge with a small amount of water.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil and fry for 3–4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Baking Option
For a lighter version, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the egg rolls on a lined baking sheet, lightly spray with cooking spray, and bake for 15–18 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these egg rolls warm with your favorite dipping sauces. Ranch dressing, marinara sauce, or a simple garlic aioli all pair wonderfully with the rich filling.
They also work great as a main dish when served with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables on the side.
Tips for Best Results
