1 chicken breast fillet
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons red bell peppers, minced
2 tablespoons green onions, minced
1/3 cup frozen corn
1/4 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons frozen spinach, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons jalapeno peppers, diced
1/2 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
8 egg roll wraps
1/4 cup fresh avocado, mashed (about half of an avocado)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon dried parsley
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion, finely chopped
1 dash pepper

Steps:

  • Season chicken breast with salt and pepper (on both sides).
  • Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until done.
  • In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil on medium-high heat.
  • Add the red pepper and onion and sauté for a few minutes, until tender.
  • Cut the cooked chicken into small cubes and add it to the pepper and onion mixture.
  • Add the corn, black beans, spinach, jalapeno peppers, parsley, cumin, and salt.
  • Cook 5- 10 minutes more, stirring frequently, until everything is heated throughout.
  • Remove pan from heat and add the cheese.
  • Stir until the cheese is mixed in well and melted.
  • Wrap about ten eggroll wrappers in a moist paper towel and microwave on high temperature for about fifteen seconds.
  • Spoon approximately two tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center.
  • Roll it up like you would a burrito (ends in first, then around the middle), making sure its very tight.
  • If desired, place a toothpick in it to hold, then arrange on a plate.
  • Cover the plate with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours.
  • (or overnight).
  • Make the dip by combining all ingredients in a bowl.
  • Spoon into container and refrigerate until needed.
  • Preheat frying oil to 375 degrees.
  • Deep fry the eggrolls in the hot oil for 2-5 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Place on a warm plate lined with paper towels to drain.
  • Slice each eggroll diagonally and serve with dipping sauce.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my egg rolls turned out really greasy. I think I might have used too much oil.

These egg rolls were just okay. I think I would have liked them more if the filling had been more flavorful.

These egg rolls were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

Not bad! I liked the filling but the egg roll wrappers were a bit too thick for my taste.

These egg rolls were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still delicious.
