Let's just start by saying I LOVE!! Back Around the Table: An "In the Kitchen with David" Cookbook. It is one of the best family cookbooks I have ever seen. It is jam packed full of recipes for families.

This is David's second cookbook and after seeing all the wonderful recipes in Back Around the Table: An "In the Kitchen with David" Cookbook I will be buying a copy of his other cookbook In the Kitchen with David: QVC's Resident Foodie Presents Comfort Foods That Take You Home so I have both of his cookbooks in my collection.

I couldn't wait to try one of David's delicious recipes and since the holidays are upon us I decided to try out his Chicken Cheesesteak Egg Roll recipe. I am always looking for a great appetizer recipes and this one is perfect because you can make a batch or two ahead of time and freeze them. Then fry them the day of your holiday event.

The Chicken Cheesesteak Egg Rolls were delicious! I love the fact that the recipes in this cookbook are so easy to make. They really are recipes that any family would enjoy.
The Chicken Cheesesteak Egg Rolls only have a few ingredients but they are packed full of cheesy flavor.
Egg rolls are very easy to make and you can have a big batch of them made up in no time.
Once you have the filling made and cooled all you need to do is roll up the egg rolls.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken cheesesteak filling on one corner of an egg roll wrapper. Dampen the edges of the egg roll wrapper with water.
Fold up the corner nearest you and then fold in the corners on each side.
Dampen the edges of the egg roll wrapper again and roll up the egg roll. Place each egg roll on a cookie sheet in a single layer not touching. If the outside of the egg rolls are damp and touching they will stick together.
If freezing the Chicken Cheesesteak Egg Rolls cover with plastic wrap and place the tray in the freezer. Once the egg rolls are frozen they can be stored in a freezer bag until needed.
If cooking immediately heat a shallow pan of oil and cook each egg roll until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel and serve.

Chicken Cheesesteak Egg Rolls
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons canola oil (plus more for frying)
- ⅓ cup finely chopped onion
- ⅓ cup finely chopped red or green bell pepper (or a combination)
- 9 ounce Steak-umm Chicken Breast Sandwich Steaks
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 6 ounces Velveeta (cut into 1⁄8-inch cubes)
- 12 egg roll wrappers
Instructions
- Heat 1 teaspoon of the canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and sauté until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl.
- Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the skillet and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the chicken to the skillet. Season with the salt and pepper. Cook the chicken until brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir, breaking up the chicken into smaller pieces. Transfer the cooked chicken to the bowl of onion and bell pepper. Toss to evenly distribute and then refrigerate until cool. When the ingredients are cool, stir in the Velveeta.
- Clip a deep-frying thermometer to the side of a heavy deep pot. Add 2 inches canola oil to the pot and slowly heat the oil to 350°F.
- To assemble the egg rolls, position 1 wrapper on a work surface like a diamond. Place 2½ tablespoons filling close to the corner nearest you and spread it up toward the middle. Using a pastry brush, brush the edges with a little water. Fold the corner closest to you up over the mixture, fold the left and right corners toward the center, and continue to roll. Brush the final corner with water to help seal the egg roll. (The egg rolls can be frozen for up to 1 month before frying.)
- Using a slotted spoon, lower 4 egg rolls into the hot oil and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes, turning them halfway while frying. Transfer the cooked egg rolls to a paper towel–lined plate to drain. Fry the remaining egg rolls and serve hot.
