CHICKEN SALAD SUMMER ROLLS



Chicken Salad Summer Rolls image

I love chicken salad sandwiches but every once in a while for a change of pace will do this gluten-free, low-carb summer roll version, which is as fun to make as it is to eat! A basic chicken salad made with leftover chicken is wrapped with crunchy, colorful vegetables inside a flexible rice wrapper and then served alongside a delicious herb aioli. So addicting! This is a great summertime culinary project for kids.

Time 1h10m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 20

½ pound shredded cooked chicken
2 tablespoons minced red onion
¼ cup thinly sliced celery
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ cup mayonnaise
6 small rice paper sheets
12 slices ripe avocado
½ cup Peppers, sweet, red, raw; red bell pepper
½ medium Cucumber, with peel, raw
½ cup julienned carrot
2 cups chopped hearts of romaine lettuce
⅓ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
2 teaspoons finely sliced fresh basil
1 clove garlic, crushed
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Mix chicken, red onion, celery, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, and mayonnaise until well blended. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 30 minutes.
  • Dip a rice paper into cold water and let soak just until it starts to become flexible. Shake off most of the excess water and lay on a work surface. Place 2 slices of avocado in the center of the wrapper, about 1 inch in from the edge closest to you. Layer with bell pepper, cucumber, and carrot, spread about 1/4 cup chicken salad over top, and cover with lettuce.
  • Grab the end of the wrapper closest to you and roll it up, gently stretching the flexible rice paper while tucking in the sides. Wet a second wrapper and wrap it around the first. Wrap the summer roll in barely damp paper towels and cover with plastic while you make the remaining 5 rolls.
  • Mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, tarragon, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper together for dipping sauce.
  • Serve summer rolls with dipping sauce on the side.
