Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works perfectly)

1/2 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to your preferred level of spiciness)

1/4 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup chopped green onions (green parts only)

1 package of egg roll wrappers (approximately 20 wrappers)

Oil for frying (vegetable or canola will work well)

Optional: ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir the mixture until well-blended and uniform in texture. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

    Assemble the Egg Rolls: Take one egg roll wrapper and place it on a clean surface with one corner facing you (this should resemble a diamond shape). Spoon approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling into the center of the wrapper.

      Roll the Egg Rolls: Begin by folding the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling. Next, fold the left and right sides in towards the center. Carefully roll the wrapper up towards the top corner, ensuring the filling is tucked in securely. To seal the edges, dab a little water or an egg wash (a beaten egg) along the top corner before sealing it. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling mixture.

        Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or deep fryer, pour in enough oil to create a depth of about 2 inches. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

          Fry the Egg Rolls: With caution, add a few egg rolls to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the egg rolls for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they achieve a beautiful golden brown color and have a crispy texture. Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

            Serve: Enjoy your Spicy Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls while they're still hot and crispy! Serve them with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping to enhance the flavors.
