  • Author: Emma Carter
  • Total Time: 53 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup shredded cooked chicken
– 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 cup corn, drained (canned or frozen)
– 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
– 1/4 cup diced green onions
– 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
– 1 tablespoon taco seasoning

– 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
– 8 large eggroll wrappers
– Oil, for frying (vegetable or canola oil)
– Dipping sauce (ranch dressing or salsa)


Instructions

Creating Chili’s Southwest Eggrolls is enjoyable if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine chicken, black beans, corn, cheese, green onions, red bell pepper, taco seasoning, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

2. Assemble Eggrolls: Lay an eggroll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing towards you. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper.

3. Roll Eggrolls: Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, then fold in the two side corners. Roll tightly away from you, sealing the top corner with a bit of water.

4. Heat Oil: In a deep frying pan or large skillet, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C).

5. Fry Eggrolls: Carefully place a few eggrolls in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan.

6. Drain Excess Oil: Use a slotted spoon to remove eggrolls and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

7. Repeat: Continue with the remaining eggrolls.

8. Cool Down: Allow eggrolls to cool for a few minutes before serving.
