Follow The Directions

01

Step
0 mins

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

02

Step
8 mins

Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium heat; cook and stir carrots, bean sprouts, water chestnuts, green pepper, green onions, and garlic until vegetables are crisp, about 3 minutes. Stir in chicken until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.

03

Step
2 mins

Combine cornstarch, water, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon oil, brown sugar, and cayenne in a small bowl; stir into chicken mixture. Bring to a boil over high heat and stir, cooking until sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes; remove from heat.

04

Step
0 mins

Spoon 1/4 cup chicken mixture on the bottom third of one egg roll wrapper. Fold sides toward center and roll tightly; place seam side down on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers. Spray top of egg rolls with nonstick cooking spray.

05

Step
15 mins

Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of sesame oil to the filling mixture.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking for a spicier kick.
These egg rolls are best served immediately after baking to ensure maximum crispness. However, they can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.

    The baking method is so much healthier than frying, and they still came out perfectly crispy.
