How to Make Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls
Step 1: Make the Buffalo Chicken Filling
In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch dressing, mozzarella, cheddar, and green onions until creamy and well combined.
Step 2: Stuff and Roll
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with a corner pointing toward you. Place about 2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the lower third. Fold up the corner over the filling, then tuck in the sides and roll up tightly, sealing the edge with a bit of water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 3: Fry the Egg Rolls
Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for 3-4 minutes, until crispy and golden brown, turning occasionally. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 4: Serve Your Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls
Let cool slightly, then serve warm with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping. Garnish with extra green onions or blue cheese crumbles if you like!
