Ingredients (Serves 4):

- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 1 cup cooked and shredded chicken
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure to drain any excess liquid from the vegetables before adding them to the filling.
- Use a small amount of filling for each egg roll to prevent them from bursting during frying.
- Fry the egg rolls in batches to ensure even cooking and prevent overcrowding in the pan.

Cooking Process:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, cornstarch, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add shredded chicken, cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
3. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper tightly and seal the top corner with a small amount of water.
5. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the egg rolls for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
6. Serve hot with additional sauce for dipping.
