# How to Make It:

01 - In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, mozzarella, blue cheese, carrots, celery, green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
02 - Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place 2–3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the center.
03 - Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll up tightly, using a little water to seal the top corner.
04 - Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling until all ingredients are used.
05 - Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or skillet to 350°F.
06 - Fry egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
07 - Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The filling comes together in under 10 minutes with ingredients you probably already have in your fridge
  • They freeze beautifully before frying, so you can prep ahead for unexpected guests
  • The combination of crispy wrapper and spicy, cheesy interior is absolutely addictive
02 -
  • Egg roll wrappers must be completely thawed or they will crack and split when you try to roll them
  • Do not overfill the wrappers or they will burst during frying
  • Let the finished egg rolls rest for about 2 minutes before biting into them or the filling will be molten hot
03 -
  • Use a kitchen thermometer to maintain oil temperature for the crispiest results
  • Work quickly with the wrappers once they are out of the package as they dry out fast
