Food connects us to cherished memories, and my Chicken & Mango Spring Rolls always bring me back to my mom, Emily Neilson on St Paddy's Day. She loved a good party and never missed a chance to celebrate, especially on St. Patrick’s Day—her favourite holiday. Dressed in green, she’d sip her green beer, laughing and dancing like no one was watching. In later years, my sisters and cousins joined in, but she was always the life of the party.

These fresh, vibrant spring rolls reflect her zest for life. The mix of tender chicken, sweet mango, and crisp vegetables in delicate rice paper creates a perfect bite—light yet full of flavour, just like her spirit. Mom believed in making every moment count, so in her honour, I share this recipe with you. Pour a drink, gather loved ones, and enjoy these delicious bites while dancing like no one’s watching—just like Mom would have wanted.

Ingredients of
Chicken & Mango Spring Rolls

Spring Rolls:

  • 12 rice paper sheets
  • 1/2 lb. (225 g) cooked chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 1 small mango, peeled, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup thin red pepper strips
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 4 cups tightly packed arugula
Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup Kraft Asian Sesame Dressing
  • 1/3 cup Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter
  • 1 tsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. water

How to Make
Chicken & Mango Spring Rolls

  1. Soak rice paper sheets, 1 at a time, in warm water for 1 min. or until softened. Place in a single layer on your work surface.
  2. Place chicken on one short end of each sheet; top with mango, peppers, onions, cilantro and arugula. Roll up each sheet, starting at the top end and folding in both sides of the sheet as you roll it up to enclose filling.
  3. Mix sauce ingredients until blended. Serve with spring rolls.

Notes

If you are not eating these immediately, wrap them individually with plastic wrap to hold in the moisture of the rice paper.
