Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 egg, beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound of ground chicken and cook until no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon.
- Stir in 1/2 cup shredded cabbage, 1/4 cup shredded carrots, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
- Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling onto the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with beaten egg and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the egg rolls in batches and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove the egg rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
