If you love a good Chinese take-out, then you will love this Chicken Egg Roll in a Bowl! Egg rolls are one of my favorite things to get whenever we get take-out but they can seem like a daunting task when making them at home when you just want a quick meal. If you want all the flavor of a chicken egg roll but none of the fuss (or frying!) then you have to try my Chicken Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe!

TIPS FOR MAKING CHICKEN EGG ROLL IN A BOWL:

You’ll want to use the tri-color coleslaw mix for this recipe (the one with shredded carrots.) If you cant find it you can use regular cole slaw mix and add in some matchstick carrots.
Ground pork, beef and turkey all work in this recipe as well. Be sure to check out my recipe for BEEF EGG ROLL IN A BOWL.
To give it the traditional egg roll feel, I garnish with wonton strips. If you’re trying to keep this low carb then you can skip them.
You can usually find the wonton strips in the salad dressing section of your grocery store near the croutons.
If you want to spice this up a bit, you can add some red pepper flakes or sriracha sauce.
This is all made in one pan so there is less clean up – that is one of my favorite parts about this recipe!
Easily double this recipe to serve more people or to have as leftovers.
