Ingredients

SERVINGS: 16 Serving(s)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 pound chicken breasts
  • 1 cup cooked black beans
  • 3 ears fresh roasted corn, cut off the cob (or use frozen cooked corn)
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 4 tablespoons minced red onion
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 ounces chipotle, puréed
  • 8 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 egg

Instructions

Combine chili powder, cumin and paprika in a small bowl. Rub chicken with the spice mix and bake in the oven at 375° until fully cooked, approximately 20 minutes.

Let the chicken cool and dice it into small cubes. In a large metal bowl add the chicken, black beans, corn, lime juice, onion, sea salt, chipotle purée and mix well.

Use a whisk to beat the egg and with a brush, lightly brush the corners of the egg roll wrappers, fill each one with four ounces of the mixture, and roll like you would an egg roll. Dust them with a little bit of flour and refrigerate until you’re ready to deep fry them. Deep fry for four minutes until golden brown.

To make chipotle aioli, combine 5 parts mayonnaise to one part of chipotle purée.
