Air Fryer Lumpia Chips Dip (Print Version)

Crispy lumpia chips served with a creamy chicken and cream cheese dip, a flavorful Filipino-inspired treat.

# What You'll Need:

→ Lumpia Chips

01 - 12 lumpia (spring roll) wrappers
02 - 2 tablespoons neutral oil (canola or vegetable)
03 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
04 - 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

→ Chicken Cream Cheese Dip

05 - 1 cup cooked chicken breast, finely shredded
06 - 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
07 - 1/4 cup mayonnaise
08 - 2 tablespoons sour cream
09 - 1 tablespoon lemon juice
10 - 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
11 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
12 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
13 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
14 - 1/4 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the air fryer to 350°F.
02 - Cut each lumpia wrapper into 4 strips or triangles, then brush lightly with oil and sprinkle with salt and optional garlic powder.
03 - Arrange the prepared wrappers in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Air fry for 4 to 5 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crisp. Repeat in batches if necessary. Allow to cool.
04 - In a medium bowl, blend cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice until smooth.
05 - Fold in shredded chicken, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir to combine evenly.
06 - Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and pair immediately with the cooled lumpia chips, or refrigerate the dip until ready to serve.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Those crispy chips hit the spot in a way that feels fancy but takes only ten minutes in the air fryer.
  • The dip is so creamy and addictive that you'll find yourself making it even when you don't have chips on hand.
02 -
  • Shaking the air fryer basket halfway through is not optional—it's what keeps the chips from cooking unevenly or sticking together.
  • Softening the cream cheese first saves you ten minutes of frustrated stirring and guarantees a smooth dip instead of a lumpy one.
03 -
  • Make the dip first so it has time to chill and flavors can meld, then fry the chips just before serving so they're at peak crispness.
  • If you're nervous about crowding the air fryer, fry the chips in two batches—they only take a few minutes anyway, and it's worth the extra step for evenly golden results.
