Time 30m

Yield 6 rolls or 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup rice vinegar, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons
4 teaspoons sugar, divided
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken (from a rotisserie or other leftover chicken)
1 medium-large carrot, shredded (about 1 cup)
Kosher salt
12 (8 1/2-inch) rice paper wrappers (See Cook's Note)
About 12 Boston lettuce leaves
1/3 English cucumber or 1 kirby cucumber, peeled, julienned, about 1 cup
4 scallions (white and green parts) finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, basil or cilantro
1/2 cup cooked brown or white rice
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Whisk 1/4 cup rice vinegar with 2 teaspoons sugar in a medium bowl until the sugar dissolves. Add the chicken and carrot, season with salt to taste and set aside.
  • Fill a large bowl with warm water. Working with 2 sheets of rice paper at a time (keep the others covered with a barely damp cloth to prevent curling), immerse the papers in the warm water until slightly softened (about 15 seconds). Remove and spread out on a clean surface or cutting board. Pat dry with a towel to remove excess water.
  • Lay 2 pieces of lettuce over the bottom third of the rice paper, leaving about 1/2 inch clear on the edges. Place about 1/3 cup of the chicken-and-carrot mixture on the lettuce, top with 4 to 5 pieces of cucumber and scallion, several mint leaves and about 1 heaping tablespoon of rice.
  • Roll up the paper halfway into a cylinder. Fold both edges in to tuck while continuing to roll the paper to seal. Place the rolls on a plate covered with a damp towel so they stay moist as you prepare the remaining rolls. Cut the rolls in half.
  • Whisk the peanut butter, soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of water and the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar and 2 teaspoons sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Serve the rolls with the dipping sauce immediately.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon vegetable oil, divided
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 cup shredded cabbage
1 large carrot, finely shredded
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons dry garlic sauce
½ cup cooked jasmine rice
12 medium (blank)s rice paper sheets

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Brush a large baking pan with 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil and set aside.

ASIAN STYLE PAPER WRAPPED CHICKEN



Asian Style Paper Wrapped Chicken image

Paper-wrapped chicken like in a pu pu platter. It is called 'Paper Wrapped' although it is actually wrapped in aluminum foil. This is one of the best appetizers I have ever had at an Asian restaurant and this is my attempt to duplicate it. It goes very well on the pu pu platter.

Time 2h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
¼ teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup peanut oil for frying, or as needed
18 6x6-inch squares of aluminum foil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix soy sauce, green onion, hoisin sauce, vegetable oil, white wine, cornstarch, sugar, ginger, garlic, five-spice powder, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Stir chicken cubes into the sauce to coat; marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
  • Place 1 to 2 chicken cubes onto a square of aluminum foil and fold the foil diagonally to make a triangle. Fold the edges over tightly several times, about 1/4 inch per fold, squeezing as much air as possible out of the packet. Repeat with remaining ingredients and foil.
  • Pour 1 cup peanut oil, or as needed, into a heavy skillet (such as a cast-iron pan) to a depth of 1/2 inch; heat over medium heat until oil is shimmering.
  • Gently lay the chicken packets, working in batches if necessary, into the hot oil and cook until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear (open a test packet to be sure), about 5 minutes per side. Drain packets on paper towels. Serve chicken in foil wrappers and let diners unwrap their own.

Time 20m

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs chicken breasts (or any combination) or 2 lbs chicken thighs, boned and sliced (or any combination)
1 piece ginger, pounded for juice
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons Chinese wine or 2 tablespoons sherry wine

oil (for deep frying)

Steps:

  • Marinate chicken in seasoning ingredients for 30 minutes.
  • Place a piece of chicken on one sheet of paper and wrap up firmly.
  • Preheat oil to 375F, then deep fry.

Tips:

  • To soften the rice paper, submerge it in lukewarm water for a few seconds until it becomes pliable. Be careful not to over-soak it, or it will become too soft and tear easily.
  • Use a variety of fillings to create different flavor combinations. Some popular options include cooked chicken, shrimp, vegetables, and herbs.
  • Be sure to tightly roll the rice paper wrappers to prevent the filling from falling out. You can use a bamboo mat to help you roll the wrappers evenly.
  • If you are making the spring rolls ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When you are ready to serve, pan-fry them until they are crispy and golden brown.

Conclusion:

Rice paper-wrapped chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little practice, you can create beautiful and flavorful rice paper-wrapped chicken rolls that will impress your family and friends.
