Prep:15minCook:30min
Chef's Notes:
Meal Prep Tip: Prepare the chicken-edamame mixture and slice all vegetables up to 2 days ahead. Store separately in airtight containers.
Rolling Technique: Don't oversoak the rice paper—it will continue to soften as you add fillings.
Variation: For a seafood option, substitute 300g cooked chopped shrimp for half the chicken.
Serving Suggestion: For a complete meal, serve with a small side of miso soup with silken tofu for additional protein.

Step 3
Add soy sauce, lime juice, and sambal oelek (if using). Cook for 1 minute.
Step 4
Stir in the cooked edamame and hemp seeds. Cook for 2 minutes to combine flavors.
Step 5
Remove from heat and stir in fresh mint. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
Prepare High-Protein Dipping Sauce
Step 6
In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, hoisin sauce, peanut butter, lime juice, garlic, and sriracha (if using).
Step 7
Whisk thoroughly until smooth. Add water 1 tbsp at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Step 8
Transfer to a serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Place one rice paper sheet in water; let stand for 30 seconds or until soft but not too soggy.

On the bottom third of the sheet, layer: 2 basil leaves
75g chicken-edamame mixture

A sprinkle of bean sprouts and cilantro
Step 13
Fold in sides of rice paper, then roll up tightly from the bottom (filled edge), jelly-roll style.
Step 14
Place seam-side down on a serving platter and cover with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
