Ingredients

Scale

For the filling:

2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works great!)

1/4 cup buffalo sauce (adjust for spiciness)

1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing (for creaminess)

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (optional, for extra gooeyness)

1/4 cup diced celery (adds crunch and balances flavor)

1 green onion, thinly sliced (optional, for freshness)

For assembly:

8–10 egg roll wrappers

1 tbsp water (to seal the wrappers)

For serving:

Extra buffalo sauce (for dipping) Ranch or blue cheese dressing Celery sticks and carrot sticks (optional, for serving)

Instructions

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, ranch or blue cheese dressing, shredded cheese (if using), diced celery, and green onion. Stir until evenly coated and well combined.

Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Place about 2–3 tablespoons of the filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll it up tightly, sealing the top corner with a dab of water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Lightly spray the assembled egg rolls with cooking oil (avocado oil or olive oil works well). Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between each roll for proper airflow.

Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Serve the egg rolls hot with extra buffalo sauce, ranch, or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Add celery sticks and carrot sticks on the side for a classic buffalo wing-inspired presentation.

Notes

For a more intense buffalo flavor, increase the amount of buffalo sauce in the filling. If you like your egg rolls extra crispy, give them an additional 2–3 minutes in the air fryer, but be sure to check to avoid overcooking. You can also add other ingredients like crumbled blue cheese or shredded carrots to the filling for extra flavor and texture.
