    Title: Egg Rolls-Royce Hot Chicken Egg Rolls
    Categories: Pastry, Poultry, Vegetables, Cheese, Potatoes
    Yield: 21 Egg rolls

    21 Egg roll wrappers
    1 qt Oil; for frying only
    1 tb Olive oil
    3 c Purchased Hot chicken;
    - shredded
    1 c Black beans; drained, rinsed
    2 c Corn; drained, rinsed
    2 c Cooked, diced potatoes
    1/2 c Chicken stock
    1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Smoked paprika
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    1 c Marscapone cheese
    1 c Fresh spinach

    Combine shredded chicken, chicken stock, black beans,
    corn, potatoes and all seasonings with cheese in large
    mixing bowl. Stir until incorporated. Add spinach and
    stir to combine.

    Line your counter with parchment paper or have large
    plate available to place rolled eggrolls prior to frying.

    Position an egg roll wrapper with one corner pointed
    towards you. Place 1/4 cup filling centered in the bottom
    third of the wrapper. Fold bottom corner over filling
    then continue to roll up, firmly folding sides toward
    center over filling as you roll. Moisten top corner with
    water and press firmly to seal. Repeat with remaining
    wrappers and filling.

    Heat oil in a deep stock pot/Dutch oven or deep-fat fryer
    to 350ºF/175ºC or medium high heat. Fry egg rolls in
    batches until golden brown, turning egg rolls a few times
    while frying. Drain on paper towels.

    TO BAKE RATHER THAN FRYING: (not as crispy): Set oven to
    425ºF/218ºC.

    Line egg rolls, seam side down, on baking sheet, so that
    they do not touch. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
    Bake for 10-15 minutes or until egg rolls are golden,
    flipping 2-3 times while baking. Broil a minute or so on
    each side for extra crispiness.

    Makes 21 egg rolls.

    1/4 c Louisiana-style hot sauce
    1 tb Smoked paprika
    2 ts Salt
    1 ts Coarse ground black pepper
    24 oz Boned, skinned chicken;

    2 c Raw pecan pieces; toasted
    1 c All-purpose flour
    1/8 ts (ea) salt & coarse ground
    - black pepper
    4 lg Egg whites; lightly beaten

    MMMMM-----------------------HOT PECAN OIL----------------------------
    1 c Pecan oil
    3 tb Cayenne pepper; or more
    2 ts Sweet paprika
    1 ts Onion powder
    1 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Chilli spice mix
    1 1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Coarse ground black pepper
    2 tb Honey

    MMMMM--------------------------GARNISH-------------------------------
    Dill pickle slices

    MARINATE THE CHICKEN: In a medium glass baking dish,
    whisk together the buttermilk, dill pickle brine, hot
    sauce, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Add chicken and
    turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours
    or overnight, turning occasionally.

    PREPARE THE CHICKEN COATING: Set the oven to
    400ºF/205ºC.

    Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly coat
    with cooking spray. In a food processor, pulse pecans
    until they resemble the texture of coarse cornmeal and
    pour into a shallow dish. In separate shallow dish,
    whisk together the flour, salt and pepper. In another
    separate shallow bowl, place egg whites.

    COAT THE CHICKEN: Drain and discard chicken marinade.
    Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Lightly dredge
    chicken in the flour, then into the egg whites and
    finally into the pecans, coating thoroughly.

    Place chicken on the foil-lined baking sheet and spray
    tops lightly with cooking spray. Bake for 18 to 22
    minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

    MAKE THE HOT PECAN OIL: In a small bowl, whisk together
    all ingredients for the hot oil except honey until
    combined. Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil mixture into a
    small bowl with the honey, whisk briefly to combine, and
    set aside.

    Pour remaining oil into a small skillet and heat over
    medium for 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through,
    whisking often.

    PLATE AND SERVE: Carefully place chicken in the skillet
    with the hot oil. Spoon more oil on top. Place one piece
    of chicken on each plate. Drizzle reserved honey-oil
    mixture over chicken, allowing any excess to drip over
    the edges. Garnish chicken with dill pickle slices.

    Yield: 4 servings
