For the filling:

  • 1 cup shredded cabbage (or coleslaw mix)

  • ½ cup shredded carrots

  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated

  • Optional: red pepper flakes or sriracha for a spicy kick

For the wrappers:

    Can’t find low-carb wrappers? Use rice paper for moderate carbs, or large cabbage leaves or keto wraps as an alternative.

For baking:

  • Olive oil or avocado oil spray


👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

2. Prepare the filling:

In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cabbage, carrots, green onion, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well.

3. Assemble the rolls:

  • Lay a wrapper flat.

  • Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of filling near one edge.

  • Fold in the sides, then roll tightly like a burrito.

  • Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.

4. Bake to crispy perfection:

Lightly spray each roll with oil. Bake for 15–18 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crisp.

🔥 Air Fryer Option: Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping once.


🥣 Dipping Sauce Ideas

These spring rolls are even better with a tasty dip. Try:

  • Sugar-free sweet chili sauce

  • Soy sauce with a splash of rice vinegar and sesame oil

  • Garlic-lime aioli

  • Sriracha mayo


📦 Storage & Meal Prep

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispness.

  • Freezer: Freeze uncooked spring rolls and bake straight from frozen — just add a few extra minutes to cook time.


💡 Tips & Variations

  • Swap chicken for ground turkey, shrimp, or tofu for different protein options.

  • Add bean sprouts, mushrooms, or bell peppers to customize the filling.

  • Make it spicy with chili garlic sauce or crushed red pepper.

  • Going fully keto? Use steamed cabbage leaves instead of wrappers.
