Prepare the filling: Cook chicken in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and chopped green onions; cook until vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Season the mixture with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper; mix well and remove from heat.

Allow the filling to cool slightly before assembling egg rolls.

Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner pointing towards you.

Place a spoonful of the filling near the corner of the wrapper.

Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal.

Seal the edge with a mixture of cornstarch and water.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).

Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove and drain on paper towels; keep warm in a low oven if needed.

Serve hot with dipping sauce of choice.
