I must admit I am not really a fan of eggrolls. At least the traditional Chinese version. I like the idea of them, I just can’t find one that I like. We have a friend who makes traditional Vietnamese eggrolls, and those I like. Apparently I like lots of meat 🙂 Those are mainly ground pork, with some bean threads and a few other things. I could eat those every day, they are so good.
These eggrolls are obviously not your traditional eggrolls, which is probably why I like them. I found these on Pinterest, and knew I had to try them. They have chicken, bacon, and avocado – one of my favorite combinations of food! Plus an avocado dipping sauce. What is not to like with these? Per the notes on the original recipe, I did add cheese to the filling. It really did make everything stick together, and worked perfectly with the filling.
I was very happy with how these turned out. They were a great dinner that was on the healthy side. The eggrolls are baked instead of fried. These would make for a great appetizer or snack at a party. And if you wanted to go all out, these would be amazing deep fried! The dipping sauce is super easy to put together, and worked great with the egg rolls. I am not a fan of ranch dressing, but here the seasonings were perfect. Even my super picky 7 year old ate some of these.
Chicken Club Eggrolls
Ingredients
Eggrolls
- 6 eggroll wrappers
- 2 cups grilled chicken, finely chopped
- 1 avocado, diced
- 6 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Avocado Dipping Sauce
- 1 Avocado
- 1 Tablespoon Ranch dressing mix
- 1 Tablespoon mayo
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Brush baking sheet with olive oil, or use a sil pat liner.
- In a large bowl combine chicken, diced avocado, bacon, and cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined. Lay 1 eggroll wrapper on the counter. Fill with about 1/3 cup of filling, leaving about 1/2 in border around the edges. Wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold the sides over. Then starting with edge closest to you, fold over, making sure the filling stays inside. Use a little additional water to seal if needed. (You are folding like a burrito) Repeat with the rest of the filling.
- Place the eggrolls seam side down on prepared baking sheet. Brush with olive oil. Bake for 15-17 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. You can use the broiler for the last minute if you want them more golden. Slice in half on an angel to serve.
- While the eggrolls are baking you can make the dipping sauce. In a small bowl, using a fork, mash the avocado. Mix with the ranch seasoning and the mayo until smooth. Add the lime juiced and stir (helps prevent it from browning).
- Serve sliced eggrolls with dipping sauce.

Great recipe. I think these would be perfect for my next girl’s night. I know we’d love these. They look so delicious and I love that they are baked. Filled with my favorite ingredients too… avocado and bacon!
I can see why these chicken club egg rolls caught your eye on Pinterest!
The avocado dipping sauce is calling me;-)
Oh wow, I’m not a fan of traditional egg rolls either, but these are another story entirely. They sound and look amazing!!
I love these like crazy!!! I would much rather eat these than the regular kind!
Oh my gosh Erin these are fabulous!! This is the type of food we eat for dinner on the weekend. I know hubby would just love this. And Pinterest… it has really expanded the food horizon for us!
I just got home from work and now I am even more hungry. Love these!!! Pinning now!!!
This would make such a great lunch! What a great idea – chicken in an eggroll.
What a great idea! I bet my husband could eat a dozen of these. And you should try the Phillipino version of egg rolls:lumpia. They are all meat and delish!
Bookmarking this recipe! Looks like my family might love them!
I love love love this! Egg rolls that are non-traditional really are the best (I love chicken fajita egg rolls). This one looks super tasty.
