Ingredients
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
2 cups cabbage and carrots mix (or coleslaw mix)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 green onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
12 egg roll wrappers
Cooking spray
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cabbage and carrot mix, garlic, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well.
2. Lay an egg roll wrapper flat like a diamond. Place 2 tablespoons of filling below the center.
3. Fold the bottom corner up, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly and seal the top corner with water.
4. Spray all sides of the egg rolls lightly with cooking spray.
5. Preheat air fryer to 375°F.
6. Place egg rolls in a single layer in the basket, not touching.
7. Air fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
8. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Don’t overfill the wrappers—this helps prevent splitting in the air fryer.
Use pre-shredded coleslaw mix to cut prep time.
Freeze uncooked egg rolls and cook straight from frozen—just add 3–4 extra minutes to the air fryer time.
