    List of Ingredients

    Mexican Egg Rolls

    3/4 cup diced, cooked chicken (1-2 chicken breasts)
    1 (16-oz.) can black beans, drained
    2 small Roma tomatoes, diced
    1 medium onion, diced
    Zest of one lime
    1/2 cup corn
    1/2 cup minced cilantro
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    1 Tbsp. butter or margarine
    3/4 tsp. cumin
    1/2 tsp. chili powder
    Egg roll wrappers
    Oil (I used peanut oil)

    Dipping sauce:

    1 cup sour cream
    1 garlic clove, minced
    Juice of 1 lime
    Dash chili powder
    1/4 cup minced cilantro



    Recipe

    Toast cumin and chili powder in dry skillet over medium heat. Set aside.
    Combine in a large bowl chicken, drained black beans, diced tomatoes,
    diced onion, lime zest, corn, cilantro, minced garlic, salt and pepper. Melt butter; stir in 1 tsp. of toasted cumin-chili powder. Brush spiced butter over the egg roll wrappers and spoon 1-2 Tbsp. of the filling into the center of the wrapper. Fold over corners and roll up. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350 degrees (F); add egg rolls, a few at a time. Cook, turning frequently, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes;
    drain on paper towels. To make dipping sauce, whisk together sour cream,
    garlic, lime juice, remaining cumin-chili powder, and cilantro. Serve egg rolls, sliced in half diagonally, with dipping sauce.

    Makes about 16 egg rolls
