Tips

Here are some short and easy tips for making chicken egg rolls : For crispier egg rolls: Ensure your oil is hot enough before adding them. The ideal temperature is around 350°F (175°C). Don't overcrowd the pan: This will lower the oil temperature and make greasy egg rolls. For even browning: Gently flip the egg rolls halfway through frying. Healthier option: Bake the egg rolls instead of frying. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Dipping sauces: Serve your egg rolls with your favorites, like sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce, or chili sauce.
