These crispy chicken spring rolls feature a juicy, well-seasoned chicken filling with fresh, crunchy vegetables wrapped in delicate wrappers and fried to golden perfection. Perfect as a homemade snack or appetizer, they deliver unbeatable crunch and flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) chicken breast or thighs, finely diced
  • 1 cup (120 g) carrots, julienned
  • 2 cups (150 g) cabbage, shredded
  • 3 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying (canola or peanut oil recommended)
  • About 20 spring roll wrappers
  • Dipping sauce of choice (sweet chili sauce, soy sauce with lime, or peanut sauce)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Add diced chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in julienned carrots, shredded cabbage, and green onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes until vegetables soften slightly but remain crunchy.
  4. Season with soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat evenly.
  5. Transfer the filling to a bowl and let it cool completely.
  6. Lay a clean kitchen towel on your workspace. Thaw frozen spring roll wrappers if needed and keep covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
  7. Place one wrapper on the towel with a corner pointing towards you (diamond shape). Spoon about 2 tablespoons (30 g) of filling near the bottom corner.
  8. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides snugly. Roll tightly towards the top corner and seal the edge with a light brush of water.
  9. Repeat until all filling is used.
  10. Pour vegetable oil into a deep frying pan or pot to a depth of about 2 inches (5 cm). Heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
  11. Carefully lower spring rolls into hot oil in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 3-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally.
  12. Remove spring rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  13. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Keep the filling completely cool before wrapping to prevent tearing. Maintain oil temperature at 350°F (175°C) for a crispy, non-greasy shell. Fry in small batches to keep oil temperature steady. For a lighter option, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, or air fry at 400°F for 15 minutes.
