Western-style Chicken Spring Rolls

My mother introduced me to this recipe for chicken spring rolls and whenever I cook them they disappear quickly! They’re very easy to make and a great way to get the kids excited about dinner (especially if you have picky eaters as I do). They are also light and gentle on the stomach when breaking fast during Ramadan. Enjoy!
