Chicken and Vegetable Spring Rolls
- 8 rice paper spring roll wrappers
- 8 leaves Boston or romaine lettuce
- Handful fresh basil leaves
- Handful fresh mint leaves
- 1 carrot, cut into sticks
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup snow peas, thinly sliced
- Serving suggestions: Ginger soy dipping sauce or peanut dipping sauce, such as Soy Ginger Dipping Sauce, Peanut Dipping Sauce For Summer Rolls or store-bought
- Fill a shallow bowl with hot (not boiling) water.
- Arrange all of your ingredients on a tray or cutting board.
- Dip a rice paper wrapper in the water, swirling it around quickly (do not immerse the sheet in water for long).
- The sheet should be wet, but somewhat firm.
- Fold the sheet into a half-moon shape and lay it on the tray.
- Add a piece of lettuce and some of the basil and mint.
- Arrange a few pieces each of the carrots, peppers, chicken and peas on one-third of the sheet (it's okay for the ingredients to spill out of the ends a bit).
- Fold the sheet over to cover the vegetables, gently tugging on the sheet to roll it into a tight cylinder.
- Repeat for the remaining rice paper sheets and fillings.
- Serve with the dipping sauces.
- Make it Your Own: Swap in leftover cooked shrimp or beef, or omit the meat and add sauteed mushrooms for a hearty vegetarian version.
