Baked Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls with Cilantro Lime Ranch offer a flavorful twist on buffalo chicken dip, wrapped in crispy egg roll wrappers. These egg rolls are easy to make, healthier than fried versions, and come with a refreshing cilantro lime ranch dipping sauce.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken

1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup buffalo sauce plus more for serving

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

2 tablespoons dried parsley

2 teaspoons dried dill

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Kosher salt, to taste

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese

20–22 square egg roll wrappers

For the Cilantro Ranch:

1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt

3/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped

1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Juice from 2 limes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, chopped chives, dried parsley, dried dill, onion powder, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Stir until well combined.
  3. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled blue cheese to the chicken mixture. Mix until the cheese is evenly distributed.
  4. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner facing you. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of the wrapper.
  5. Fold the sides of the wrapper in and then roll it up tightly, sealing the edges with a little water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  6. Arrange the egg rolls on the prepared baking sheet, brushing each one lightly with olive oil or spraying with cooking spray.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg rolls are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through the baking time for even crispness.
  8. While the egg rolls are baking, prepare the Cilantro Lime Ranch by combining the sour cream (or Greek yogurt), chopped cilantro, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, and lime juice in a bowl. Stir until smooth and set aside.
  9. Serve the baked buffalo chicken egg rolls with the cilantro lime ranch dipping sauce and extra buffalo sauce on the side if desired.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture.

Experiment with different cheeses such as Monterey Jack or mozzarella for variation.

For a vegetarian option, replace chicken with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and cheese.

These egg rolls can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to a day before baking.

The Cilantro Lime Ranch can be stored for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
