Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls are crispy, golden appetizers packed with spicy buffalo chicken, creamy cheese, and tangy flavor. Air-fried or baked, they deliver all the taste of buffalo wings in a crunchy, handheld bite—perfect for parties, game days, or snacks.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or poached)
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to spice preference)
  • 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 8–10 egg roll wrappers
  • 1–2 tbsp oil or cooking spray
  • Optional: 1 tsp ranch seasoning or 2 tbsp blue cheese crumbles

Instructions

  1. Make the filling: In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, cheddar, green onions, and any optional seasonings until smooth and well combined.
  2. Wrap the egg rolls: Lay a wrapper in a diamond shape. Add 2 tbsp of filling near the bottom corner. Fold up the bottom, tuck in both sides, and roll tightly. Use a dab of water or egg wash to seal the top edge.
  3. Preheat air fryer: Set air fryer to 200°C (400°F) and preheat for 3–5 minutes.
  4. Air fry: Place egg rolls seam-side down in the basket without touching. Lightly brush or spray with oil. Cook for 8–10 minutes, flip, then cook another 5–7 minutes until golden and crisp.
  5. Rest and serve: Let cool for 1–2 minutes before serving. Serve warm with ranch, blue cheese dressing, or extra buffalo sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Press wrappers tightly when rolling to prevent leaks.
  • Don’t overfill; too much filling can cause bursting.
  • Use softened cream cheese for a smooth filling texture.
  • Cook in batches for best crispiness—avoid crowding the basket.
  • Oven option: Bake at 220°C (425°F) for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Frying option: Deep fry at medium heat until golden brown (about 5–7 minutes).
