Time 4h32m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half
2 tablespoons minced green onion
2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper
⅓ cup frozen corn kernels
¼ cup black beans, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons diced jalapeno peppers
½ tablespoon minced fresh parsley
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
⅓ teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper
¾ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
5 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 quart oil for deep frying

Steps:

  • Rub 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over chicken breast. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook chicken approximately 5 minutes per side, until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in green onion and red pepper. Cook and stir 5 minutes, until tender.
  • Dice chicken and mix into the pan with onion and red pepper. Mix in corn, black beans, spinach, jalapeno peppers, parsley, cumin, chili powder, salt and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir 5 minutes, until well blended and tender. Remove from heat and stir in Monterey Jack cheese so that it melts.
  • Wrap tortillas with a clean, lightly moist cloth. Microwave on high approximately 1 minute, or until hot and pliable.
  • Spoon even amounts of the mixture into each tortilla. Fold ends of tortillas, then roll tightly around mixture. Secure with toothpicks. Arrange in a medium dish, cover with plastic, and place in the freezer. Freeze at least 4 hours.
  • In a large, deep skillet, heat oil for deep frying to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Deep fry frozen, stuffed tortillas 10 minutes each, or until dark golden brown. Drain on paper towels before serving.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield about 16 egg rolls

Number Of Ingredients 20

Nonstick cooking spray
2 1/2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
One 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
One 4-ounce can diced green chiles, drained
4 scallions, chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
One 16-ounce package egg roll wrappers
1 egg, slightly beaten
5 plum tomatoes, quartered
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/2 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
3 scallions, white and light green parts only, finely chopped
1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves and stems, finely chopped
Juice of 1/2 lime
2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the egg rolls: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet generously with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cheese, corn, beans, spinach, chiles, scallions, cumin, chili powder, cayenne and salt. Stir together, making sure to break up the clumps of spinach.
  • Have a small bowl of water ready for moistening your fingers.
  • Lay one egg roll wrapper out on a work surface and moisten the edges with your finger. Scoop 1/4 cup of the filling into the center of the wrapper; mound into a 1-inch wide log arranged diagonally across the wrapper, with about an inch of space to the corners. Fold the corners over the filling, gently pressing down on either side to secure the fold. Then, starting at one of the unfolded corners, gently but firmly roll up the egg roll. Place on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until all of the filling has been used.
  • Brush the tops and sides of the egg rolls generously with beaten egg. Bake until golden brown all over, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • For the salsa: Meanwhile, pulse the tomatoes, garlic and jalapeno in a food processor until the tomatoes are almost smooth. Add the scallions, cilantro, lime juice and salt; pulse just to combine.
  • Serve the egg rolls with the salsa on the side, for dipping.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked black beans. Rinse them well before using to remove excess salt.
  • If you don't have spring roll wrappers, you can use wonton wrappers instead. Just cut them into squares before filling and rolling.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the vegetables. This will help prevent them from tearing when you roll the egg rolls.
  • Don't overfill the egg rolls. This will make them difficult to roll and seal.
  • To prevent the egg rolls from sticking to the pan, make sure the oil is hot before adding them.
  • Fry the egg rolls in batches so that they don't crowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Serve the egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or duck sauce.

These spinach black bean egg rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
