Ingredients

3 cups coleslaw mix (about 7 ounces)
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons Sriracha chili sauce
1 package (24 to 28 each) spring roll wrappers, thawed
Oil for deep-fat frying
Sweet chili sauce, optional

Steps:

Toss coleslaw mix, onions, soy sauce and sesame oil; let stand while cooking chicken. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Add chicken; cook, covered, until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, 15-20 minutes. Remove chicken; cool slightly. Finely chop chicken; toss with seasoned salt., In a large bowl, mix cream cheese and chili sauce; stir in chicken and coleslaw mixture. With a corner of a spring roll wrapper facing you, place about 2 tablespoons filling just below center of wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling; moisten remaining edges with water. Fold side corners toward center over filling; roll up tightly, pressing tip to seal. Repeat., In a cast-iron Dutch oven or electric skillet, heat oil to 375°. Fry spring rolls, a few at a time, until golden brown, 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels. If desired, serve with sweet chili sauce. , Freeze option: Freeze uncooked spring rolls in freezer containers, spacing them so they don't touch, and separating layers with waxed paper. To use, fry frozen spring rolls as directed, increasing time as necessary.
