Ingredients for the Perfect Buffalo Chicken Dip

To create the irresistible filling for our Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls, you’ll need a few simple ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (about 2 large chicken breasts)
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup buffalo wing sauce (Frank’s RedHot is a classic!)
• ½ cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing, if you prefer)
• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
• ¼ cup chopped green onions
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon onion powder

For the egg roll wrappers, you’ll need 12 egg roll wrappers, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, and ¼ cup of water for sealing. And for frying, you’ll need some vegetable oil as well.

To make the dish even more irresistible, you can serve it with optional garnishes like ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing, chopped green onions, and shredded cheddar cheese.

Preparing the Creamy Buffalo Chicken Dip

The key to the perfect Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls is the flavorful and creamy buffalo chicken dip. Start by combining the cooked and shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing), shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl.

Mix all the ingredients together until they’re well combined and the dip has a smooth, creamy consistency. A hand mixer can be a handy tool to achieve the perfect texture. Taste the dip and adjust the seasonings as needed, adding more buffalo sauce for a spicier kick or more cream cheese for a milder flavor.

Once the dip is ready, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the dip to firm up slightly, making it easier to work with when assembling the egg rolls.

Assembling the Crispy Egg Rolls

Now that the delectable buffalo chicken dip is prepared, it’s time to wrap it up in crispy egg roll wrappers. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface with one point facing you (like a diamond).

Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the chilled buffalo chicken dip in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the left and right corners towards the center, creating an envelope shape. Brush the top corner with a little water to help seal the egg roll.

Roll the egg roll tightly from the bottom to the top, pressing firmly to seal the edge. Repeat this process with the remaining egg roll wrappers and buffalo chicken dip, arranging the assembled egg rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Frying the Crispy Egg Rolls

To achieve that perfect golden-brown crispiness, it’s time to fry the Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls. Pour about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer and heat it to 350°F (175°C).

Carefully lower the egg rolls into the hot oil, frying a few at a time to prevent overcrowding. Fry the egg rolls for 3-4 minutes, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Once cooked, remove the egg rolls from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. This will help absorb any excess oil and ensure your egg rolls stay nice and crunchy.

Serving and Enjoying the Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls

Serve your piping hot Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls with a side of ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Feel free to garnish them with chopped green onions and shredded cheddar cheese for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.

These crispy, creamy, and spicy egg rolls are the perfect appetizer or snack for any occasion. Enjoy the delightful contrast of the crunchy wrapper and the rich, flavorful buffalo chicken dip in every bite. Your guests (or just you!) are sure to be impressed and thoroughly satisfied.

FAQs About Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls

Can I freeze Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls for later use?

Yes, you can freeze Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls! To do this, assemble the egg rolls but do not fry them. Instead, place the uncooked egg rolls in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, fry them directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

What is the best way to reheat leftover Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls?

The best way to reheat leftover Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls is to use an oven or an air fryer. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), place the egg rolls on a baking sheet, and heat for about 10-15 minutes or until they are hot and crispy. If using an air fryer, set it to 350°F (175°C) and heat for about 5-7 minutes. Avoid microwaving them, as this can make the wrappers soggy.

Can I customize the filling of Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls?

Absolutely! Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls are very versatile. You can customize the filling by adding ingredients like diced celery for crunch, bell peppers for sweetness, or even different cheeses like pepper jack for added spice. For a healthier twist, you can also use ground turkey or shredded rotisserie chicken. Just ensure that the filling maintains a similar consistency to facilitate rolling.

How can I make Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls less spicy?

To make Buffalo Chicken Dip Egg Rolls less spicy, you can adjust the amount of buffalo wing sauce in the filling. Start with a smaller amount, tasting as you go, and gradually increase it until you reach your desired level of heat. Additionally, you can use a milder sauce or mix the buffalo sauce with ranch dressing to tone down the spice. Including more cream cheese can also help mellow the flavor without sacrificing creaminess.
