Thought to have been invented in New York City's Chinatown restaurants in the 1930s, the egg roll became a beloved menu item across the country. This easy homemade version swaps the traditional roast pork and cabbage filling for rotisserie chicken and broccoli slaw mix to deliver great flavor while cutting down on prep time. Using teriyaki sauce, borrowed from the Japanese pantry, is another shortcut.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Mix the chicken, 2 cups broccoli slaw, 1/4 cup cilantro, 2 scallions, the ginger, 2 tablespoons each teriyaki sauce and duck sauce and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large bowl.
  2. Heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Meanwhile, arrange the chicken mixture down the center of each egg roll wrapper. Tuck in the ends and roll to enclose; dab the edges with water and press to seal. Working in batches if needed, add the egg rolls to the oil seam-side down; fry, turning, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  3. Combine the remaining 2 cups broccoli slaw, 1/4 cup cilantro, 2 scallions and the baby corn in a large bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon each teriyaki sauce, duck sauce and vegetable oil, and the rice vinegar; toss. Serve the egg rolls with the broccoli slaw, orange wedges and more duck sauce.
