Ingredients
For the Shrimp Egg Rolls
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 lb shrimp, peeled, deveined, and finely chopped
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup chopped green onions
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Salt to taste
- Oil for frying
For the Jalapeño Ranch Dip
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- 1 small jalapeño, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp sour cream
- 1 tsp lime juice
- Pinch of garlic powder
Instructions
1. Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, green onions, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined and creamy.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls
Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Add a spoonful of the shrimp mixture to the center. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly, sealing the edges with a little water to secure the roll.
3. Fry the Egg Rolls
Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for about 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
4. Prepare the Jalapeño Ranch Dip
In a small bowl, mix the ranch dressing, chopped jalapeño, sour cream, lime juice, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth. Refrigerate for a few minutes to let the flavors combine.
5. Serve
Serve the crispy shrimp egg rolls hot with the jalapeño ranch dip on the side.
