Title: Easy Potstickers Dumplings Recipe With Chicken Or Pork
Ingredients:
– 1 lb ground chicken or pork
– 2 cups finely chopped cabbage
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
– 3 green onions, finely chopped
– 1 tbsp soy sauce
– 1 tsp sesame oil
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/4 tsp black pepper
– 1 pack round dumpling wrappers
– Water for sealing the dumplings
– Cooking oil for frying
– Dipping sauce:
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 1 tbsp rice vinegar
– 1 tsp sesame oil
– 1 tsp chili flakes (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken or pork, cabbage, garlic, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.
2. Take a dumpling wrapper and place a small spoonful of the filling mixture in the center. Dip your finger in water and moisten the edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half and pinch the edges firmly to seal the dumpling. You can crimp the edges decoratively for added flair.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the dumplings in the skillet, making sure they don’t touch each other. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
4. Pour 1/4 cup of water into the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Let the dumplings steam for about 6-8 minutes or until the water has evaporated.
5. Remove the lid and let the dumplings cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp up the bottoms. Transfer the dumplings to a plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining dumplings.
6. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes to create a dipping sauce for the potstickers.
