Ingredients
For the Egg Rolls
1 cup cooked and shredded chicken
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese
1 (15.5 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz) can corn, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cumin
1 egg, beaten
16 egg roll wrappers
For the Tex Mex Ranch Dip
1 cup sour cream
¾ cup milk
2 tablespoons ranch dressing seasoning
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 green onion, finely sliced
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F and lightly grease the tray or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, cheese, black beans, corn, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and cumin.
Mix well.
Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface and scoop about ¼ to ⅓ cup of the mixture onto the center of each wrapper.
Brush the edges of each wrapper with beaten egg.
Fold one corner over the filling, then fold both sides in, and roll to enclose the filling completely.
Use a small amount of the beaten egg on the final corner to seal the egg roll.
Brush the entire surface of each egg roll with the beaten egg and arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer, making sure they do not touch.
Cook for 5 minutes, then flip the egg rolls and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until golden and crispy.
For the Tex Mex Ranch Dip, combine the sour cream, milk, ranch dressing seasoning, lime juice, and green onion in a small bowl.
Stir until well mixed.
Serve alongside the egg rolls if desired.
Notes
Make sure the air fryer is preheated for even cooking
Avoid overfilling to prevent bursting
Turn egg rolls halfway for uniform crispiness
Serve immediately for best texture
Use a light spray of oil for extra crunch
