Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 30 mins
Cuisine: Asian
Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  2. 1 ripe mango, sliced
  3. 1 cup lettuce, shredded
  4. 8 rice paper wrappers
  5. 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
  6. 1/4 cup hoisin sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare all ingredients by washing and chopping: shred the cooked chicken into fine pieces, slice the ripe mango into thin strips, and finely chop the lettuce and mint leaves.
  2. Fill a large, wide bowl with warm water. This will be used to soften the rice paper wrappers during assembly.
  3. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the warm water for about 10-15 seconds until it becomes pliable and translucent. Carefully remove and place on a clean, damp kitchen towel.
  4. In the center of the softened rice paper, layer a small handful of shredded lettuce as the base.
  5. Add a portion of shredded chicken on top of the lettuce, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Place mango slices next to the chicken, creating a colorful and appetizing arrangement.
  7. Sprinkle fresh mint leaves over the chicken and mango for added flavor and aroma.
  8. Carefully fold the bottom of the rice paper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to create a neat spring roll.
  9. Repeat the process with remaining wrappers and ingredients until all spring rolls are assembled.
  10. Serve immediately with hoisin sauce on the side for dipping, ensuring the rolls are fresh and the wrapper remains soft and delicate.

Tips

  1. Prep Ahead: To save time, you can prep all your ingredients in advance. Shred the chicken, slice the mango, and chop the lettuce and mint leaves a few hours before you plan to assemble the spring rolls.
  2. Soften Rice Paper with Care: When dipping the rice paper wrappers in warm water, be careful not to soak them for too long. Aim for 10-15 seconds until they are just pliable; they will continue to soften as you roll.
  3. Layering is Key: For the best flavor and presentation, layer the ingredients thoughtfully. Start with lettuce as a base, then add chicken, mango, and mint to create a visually appealing and delicious combination.
  4. Tight Rolling: When rolling the spring rolls, make sure to fold in the sides tightly to prevent the filling from spilling out. A snug roll also helps keep the spring rolls intact when serving.
  5. Serve Fresh: These spring rolls are best enjoyed fresh! If you need to make them ahead of time, cover them with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out, and serve with hoisin sauce for an extra burst of flavor.
