Ingredients

3 cups finely chopped cooked chicken
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/4 cup finely chopped water chestnuts
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Fold bottom corner over filling; fold sides toward center over filling. Roll toward the remaining point. Moisten top corner with water; press to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
