An egg roll with southwestern flair? We say, “Let’s roll!”. Mix it up and get spicy – food should be fun! And these baked chicken rolls are as fun to make as they are to eat. The filling can be customized to suite everyone’s tastes. With a brush of oil, they bake up golden and crunchy without the fat from frying. They take just minutes to assemble, less than 20 minutes to cook, and you can precook the chicken or use rotisserie for quicker prep. Grab a good salsa and some sour cream for dipping or drizzling. They also make a great app!
