Ingredients

Eggroll Filling

  • 12 pieces Egg roll wrappers (Found near tofu or refrigerated produce.)
  • 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken (Can use rotisserie chicken for convenience.)
  • 1 cup Black beans (Rinse and drain well.)
  • 1 cup Corn (Frozen corn works best; thaw and pat dry.)
  • 1 cup Bell pepper (Dice small; red preferred for sweetness.)
  • 1/2 cup Onion (Chopped.)
  • 1/2 cup Jalapeños (Fresh or pickled, finely chopped.)
  • 1 teaspoon Chili powder (Part of the spice mix.)
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin (Part of the spice mix.)
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder (Part of the spice mix.)
  • 1/2 cup Cheese (Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack) (Shredded.)
  • Oil as needed Oil for frying or spray oil for air fryer/oven (Use according to cooking method chosen.)

Instructions

Prepare the Filling

  1. Warm a skillet with a little oil.
  2. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until softened.
  3. Stir in corn, black beans, jalapeños, and spices.
  4. Add shredded chicken and mix well.
  5. Turn off heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
  6. Stir in shredded cheese last.

Rolling the Eggrolls

  1. Lay the wrapper like a diamond. Put filling slightly below the center.
  2. Fold the bottom up over the filling, fold the sides in, then roll it up snugly.
  3. Use an egg wash or a little water to seal the edges.

Cooking Methods

  1. For deep frying, heat oil to 350°F and fry for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown.
  2. For air frying, spray with oil and air fry at 380°F for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway.
  3. For oven baking, place on a rack over a sheet pan, spray with oil, and bake at 425°F for 18 to 20 minutes.

Notes

Make ahead by preparing the filling up to 3 days ahead. Store in the fridge and roll just before cooking for optimal texture. Leftover eggrolls can be reheated in an air fryer for best results.
