How to Make Spinach And Chicken Southwestern Egg Rolls W Avocado Ranch Dip

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup chopped green onion, and 1/4 cup chopped red onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until tender.
  3. Add 1 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken to the skillet.
  4. Stir in 1 cup frozen corn, 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 5 ounces fresh spinach, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper.
  5. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until spinach wilts and is incorporated.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
  7. To warm tortillas, place 6 large flour tortillas in a microwave-safe ziploc bag with a damp paper towel. Microwave on high for 30-35 seconds or until warm and pliable.
  8. Spoon about 1/6 of the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla.
  9. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll up from the bottom.
  10. Secure each egg roll with a toothpick.
  11. For the Avocado Ranch Dip: In a medium bowl, mash 1 ripe avocado with 1/4 cup finely diced tomato, 2 tablespoons finely minced red onion, 1/2 cup ranch dressing, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1 tablespoon dried parsley, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic oil, 1 teaspoon dill weed, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  12. Heat 4-6 cups of oil to 350°F (175°C).
  13. Deep fry the egg rolls in batches for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  14. Remove egg rolls and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  15. Slice each egg roll diagonally and arrange on a bed of lettuce. Top with Avocado Ranch Dip, and garnish with chopped tomato and red onion.
  16. (Optional) For make-ahead: Arrange assembled egg rolls on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 4 hours (overnight is best). Deep fry frozen egg rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until heated through and golden brown.
