Ingredients

Units Scale

Egg Roll Tacos

  • 1 lb. ground chicken, turkey, or pork
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili crisp
  • 1 tablespoon garlic paste (or 2 cloves garlic, grated)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger paste (or a 1/2-inch piece ginger, grated)
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage and carrots mix (great time to use a store-bought coleslaw or salad mix, where the base is cabbage)
  • 68 small flour tortillas (I like the Mission Street Taco ones for this)
  • 23 tablespoons avocado oil or toasted sesame oil

Toppings

  • More fresh cabbage / carrot mix (can use the same bag from before!)
  • Fresh cilantro or green onion
  • Chili crisp
  • Gochujang sauce

Instructions

  1. Make Filling: Mix the ground meat, soy sauce, chili crisp, garlic, ginger, and veggies together. I just mix it all up with my hands.

  2. Spread Filling: Press the mixture onto one side of the tortillas. I find it easiest to do all of them at once, before you start cooking them.

  3. Cook Tacos: Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil. Working in batches, add the tacos, meat-side down, and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are browned. Flip to the back side for 1 minute to get the tortillas a bit golden, and then finish with one more flip to being meat-side down to ensure it’s cooked through. (165 degrees for chicken and turkey, 160 for ground pork.)

  4. Top and Eat: Top with more fresh cabbage, cilantro or green onions, and your sauces of choice. Fold in half – it eats kind of like a hybrid between a taco and sandwich, but tastes like an eggroll. I *love* these with the gochujang sauce!

Notes

Egg rolls meet tacos! I love this! Easy to make and ridiculously good with a classic egg roll filling, crunchy veg, pillowy tortillas, and a spicy gochujang sauce.
