If you aren’t an egg roll in a bowl fan yet, get ready.  These egg roll bowls with chicken are LIFE CHANGING.

But seriously, I don’t like playing favorites with recipes, but, a good egg roll in a bowl is definitely one of my favorite meals ever.

The flavors in this one are on point, and it couldn’t be easier to throw together for a quick dinner.

The only problem here is everyone fighting over the leftovers!  Or, no leftovers at all.  It’s that good, quite possibly addicting.

Everything You Need to Make These Egg Roll Bowls

Sesame Aioli:

• homemade mayo or purchased paleo mayo
• garlic
• sesame oil
• lime juice 
• hot sauce

Egg Roll Bowls

• boneless skinless chicken thighs
• avocado oil
• Sea salt and pepper, for the chicken
• onion powder
• Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
• shredded veggies – slaw mixture or a combination of shredded cabbage, carrots, brussels sprouts
• coconut aminos
• sesame oil
• hot sauce, Whole30 compatible
• scallions thinly sliced white/light green and green parts separated
• garlic
• fresh ginger

Tips For Making These Egg Roll Bowls

Unless I’m dredging chicken, I typically like using boneless skinless thighs instead of breasts.  They don’t dry out at all, crisp up on the outside really well without any effort, and they have tons of flavor!

So, we’re starting with the chicken, cut up in bite size pieces or strips, whatever you prefer.  The veggies you use are up to you – they just need to be shredded.

I used a traditional slaw mix purchased in the grocery store near the pre-mixed salads, along with purple cabbage and shredded carrots.

To keep this recipe super low carb you can use all cabbage, or even add in a little shredded kale or brussels sprouts.

But now, what makes this stir fry really taste like an egg roll?  The sauce!

And by “sauce” I’m really just talking about the combination of coconut aminos and sesame oil paired with the garlic, ginger, and scallions.  Nothing fancy but it totally hits the spot!

And wait, there’s another sauce too – to top your egg roll bowl!  I couldn’t resist topping this one with a sesame aioli just like I did for the shrimp egg roll bowls.

I used a store bought Whole30 compliant (avocado oil based) mayo here, but you can also go with homemade mayo for an even tastier (in my opinion!) aioli.

So here we are – ready to make this easy stir fry that’s going to taste just like the inside of an egg roll – except even better.

It’ll be ready in less than 30 minutes and you will be floored how addicting this recipe really is!  Okay, now’s the time to start cooking – let’s go!
