Carefully remove from oven and let stand until room temperature, then
refrigerate. Once cooled, separate and pull the chicken. Discard any
remaining sauce and fat on the chicken before pulling.
Mix chicken with apple granules, onions, green chilies, cilantro, lime and apple flake powder.
Heat oil in fryer or medium-sized saucepan to 350 Fwith custom basket (see below).
Cut Lumpia wrappers in 3½" diameter circle. Brush 1 cut wrapper with
light coating of egg wash and sandwich second circle and press together.
Place laminated Lumpia skin in taco-shape form and hold in place with
tongs and fry for 15 seconds until evenly crispy. Drain on paper towel
and hold at room temperature. Ensure there is a 5/8" opening in taco
shell to fill. There should be at least 18 shells to accommodate for
breakage.
