How to Make Chicken Lumpia

  1. In a large skillet, brown the ground chicken over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the carrots, green bell pepper, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and ginger. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. Remove the chicken mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly.
  5. Lay out a lumpia wrapper on a flat surface. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of the wrapper.
  6. Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to the top.
  7. Seal the top edge by lightly wetting it with water.
  8. Heat about 1 inch of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  9. Carefully fry the lumpia in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy (about 3-5 minutes per batch).
  10. Remove the lumpia from the skillet and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
  11. Serve hot with sweet and sour sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
