Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch pieces
• 1 (1 1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, minced
• 6 ounces fresh snow pea pods
• 12 ounces bean sprouts
• 1 pound watercress, chopped
• 2 large carrots, peeled
• 12 spring roll wrappers
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce, divided
• 2 teaspoons peanut oil, divided
• 0.25 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1.5 cups peanut sauce, divided

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine 1 cup peanut sauce, ginger, garlic, and 1 teaspoon soy sauce in a bowl. Add chicken and mix until coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Heat 1 teaspoon peanut oil in a wok over medium heat. Add bean sprouts, snow peas, and green onions and cook until heated but still crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Step 3

Transfer bean sprout mixture to a large bowl; mix in watercress and cilantro. Use a vegetable peeler to peel long strips carrot into the bowl. Add remaining 1 teaspoon soy sauce and toss to coat.

Step 4

Heat remaining 1 teaspoon peanut oil in the wok over medium heat. Add marinated chicken; cook and stir until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

Fill a large bowl with hot water. Submerge one wrapper in the bowl and hold until soft and pliable, about 2 seconds. Lift wrapper, let excess liquid drip off, and place onto a work surface. Place two large spoonfuls chicken and a small handful vegetable mixture into the center of the wrapper. Fold in the two sides, then fold the bottom up and over the filling; roll to seal. Repeat to make remaining spring rolls.

Step 6

Serve with remaining 1/2 cup peanut sauce for dipping.
