As you may have noticed, my air-fryer has been my favorite kitchen tool lately and I’ve been coming up lots of fun recipes so I can use it more (including these incredible Mini Pizza Pop-Tarts!)
Egg rolls are one of the easiest and most delicious things I’ve made in the air fryer! Since I love all things buffalo chicken, I thought combining them would be a great call.
And it was.
Everyone knows you can’t have buffalo chicken without a little blue cheese dressing on the side, so I even managed to hack a low fat version It’s the perfect guilt free dipping sauce to pair with these delicious Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls.
This combo is a perfect week night meal or appetizer to whip up for a party! Let me know what guilty pleasure recipe you want me to hack in my air-fryer next!

Instructions
Eggrolls
- Add chicken breasts to a pot, cover completely with chicken broth. Add water if you need more liquid to cover. Bring to a boil then, turn down to a simmer, cover with lid and cook for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. When chicken is cooked, shred and set to the side.
- In a large skillet, melt your butter. Add the white part of the sliced green onions and cook for a minute or two. Then add your shredded cabbage and cook for one minute. Then, the shredded chicken. Immediately after adding the chicken, coat in the Frank reds hot sauce and stir to combine. Move to a bowl and let it cool.
- Once mixture is cool, fill a small bowl with water. Lay out an egg roll wrapper and place buffalo chicken filling diagonally across. Top with bits of your blue cheese.
- Wet the tips of your fingertips, place water all the way around the edges of the egg roll and roll up. Place off to the side and repeat step until you’ve used all the mixture.
- Brush your egg rolls with oil until coated and place into the air-fryer. Be sure they’re not touching (I had to do this in multiple batches). Air-fry at 380 degrees for 9 minutes, or until golden brown, and then flip for another 5 minutes or until golden.
- Once they’re all cooked. pair with your favorite blue cheese dressing or use the recipe I came up with to make your own!
