Ingredients

3 rice paper sheets (standard size works best, typically 8.5-9 inches in diameter)

2 eggs

1/2 cup shredded roast chicken

1/2 cup sautéed spinach

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

1/2 cup crumbled feta

Sesame seeds

Salt and pepper

Lemon (for serving)

Directions

Make the Filling: Combine chicken, spinach, mozzarella, and feta in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine.

Prep the Rice Paper: Whisk eggs on a shallow plate. Dip each rice paper sheet into the egg wash for a few seconds, then lay flat on a lightly oiled board or cutting board.

Roll: Spoon the filling in a line across the center of each sheet and roll tightly into a cylinder.

Shape: Gently curve each roll around itself to form a spiral, tucking the end underneath to hold.

Season and Bake: Brush the outside of each spiral generously with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 400°F for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and crisp all over.

Serve: Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
