AIR FRYER RICE PAPER CHICKEN ROLL-UPS
With rice paper wrappers, you can wrap chicken tenders and air fry them for a "fried" experience without the mess of deep frying. Simply soak a rice paper wrapper for few seconds, roll up a chicken tender in it and then let it cook in an air fryer until it's super crispy and crunchy. Try this method with your favorite protein for a quick weeknight meal or appetizer.

Steps:
- Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry between paper towels, then cut each breast into 6 equal tenders, about 1 ounce each. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Soak 1 rice paper wrapper in a large shallow bowl of warm water until pliable, about 15 seconds, then lay on a cutting board. Arrange 1 chicken tender lengthwise across the middle of the wrapper. Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the chicken, then fold in the sides and roll up into a tight log. Place the roll-up on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining wrappers and chicken tenders.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F. Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Working in batches, place the roll-ups in a single layer in the basket, spacing them apart, then spray with them with cooking spray. Cook, flipping halfway through, until the roll-ups are golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Garnish the roll-ups with the scallions, cilantro, and chiles and serve with sweet Thai chili sauce.

Steps:
- Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl. Cover the chicken with the light soy sauce, Chinese five-spice powder, salt and garlic, and stir to coat. Toss the chicken with the toasted sesame oil. Let marinate for as much time as you have; for best results, leave the chicken in the refrigerator overnight.
- When ready to fry, toss the chicken pieces in the cornstarch.
- Heat a large wok or pan over high heat and add the vegetable oil. Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, add the chicken and fry lightly until the thighs are golden brown on all sides and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the chicken on paper towels and season them with salt, pepper and cilantro as they come out of the oil.
- Wrap each piece of newspaper and parchment into a cone shape and secure with a piece of tape. Fill each cone with several pieces of chicken and garnish with more chopped cilantro. Serve alongside a platter of Mixed Salad if desired.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, light soy sauce, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil; set aside. Toss the lettuce, carrots, chiles and scallions with the dressing when ready to serve.

PAPER-WRAPPED CHICKEN
I eat this quite a bit at our local Chinese restaurants, so I recreated it at home and made it even tastier. These are time-consuming, and I recommend using oil in the deep fryer that is ready to change as the marinade will ruin it for cooking anything else. I've also done this technique successfully with squid. I've also added in very thinly sliced onion and green peppers to the marinade and it was really good.

- Put the noodles in a pan of water and bring to the boil, simmer for 3 mins, then cool under running water. Drain thoroughly.
- Cut the carrot into matchsticks using a knife or a mandoline. Cut the avocado into strips and the cucumber into thin sticks. Soak 2 of the rice paper wraps in cold water for 1-2 mins until floppy.
- Lift 1 sheet of rice paper out of the water, shake gently, then lay it carefully on a board. Place 2 prawns in the centre, with a mint leaf between them. Add a strip of avocado, pile some noodles on top, then add a layer of carrot and cucumber. Fold the bottom half of the rice paper over, then fold the sides in and tightly roll it up. Repeat using the second wrapper and soak 2 more to make 2 more rolls.

Tips:
- Choose the right rice paper: Look for pliable and translucent rice paper that is not too thick or too thin.
- Soak the rice paper properly: Dip each sheet of rice paper in warm water for a few seconds until it becomes soft and pliable. Be careful not to soak it for too long, or it will become too soft and tear easily.
- Use fresh and flavorful fillings: The fillings are what make these wraps so delicious, so use the freshest and most flavorful ingredients you can find.
- Roll the wraps tightly: Once you have added the fillings, roll the wraps tightly so that they hold together well.
- Serve immediately or store properly: Rice paper wraps are best served immediately after they are made. However, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to a day or two. To store, place the wraps in a single layer in an airtight container.
Conclusion:
Rice paper wraps are a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack that can be made with a variety of fillings. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are also a great way to use up leftover chicken or vegetables. With just a few simple tips, you can make perfect rice paper wraps every time.
