Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground chicken
- 12 large Cabbage leaves
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 small Carrot
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully separate the cabbage leaves and blanch them in the boiling water for 1-2 minutes until just tender. Remove and place on a towel to drain and cool.
Mince the garlic and finely chop the onion and carrot.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, minced garlic, chopped onion, and carrot. Add in the soy sauce, fish sauce, black pepper, salt, and the egg. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Lay a blanched cabbage leaf on a flat surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture at the bottom of the leaf, fold in the sides, and roll tightly towards the top. Repeat with remaining cabbage leaves and chicken mixture.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Carefully place the lumpia rolls seam-side down. Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cabbage is golden brown.
Remove from the skillet and drain excess oil on a paper towel before serving.
Serve the low carb chicken lumpia warm with your choice of dipping sauce on the side.
