Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 3 stalks green onion, finely chopped
- 2 medium carrots, grated
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 package (about 50 wrappers) wonton wrappers
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped green onions, grated carrots, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Add soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and white pepper to the chicken mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Prepare your work surface by setting out the wonton wrappers and a small bowl of water.
Take one wrapper and place about a teaspoon of the chicken filling in the center. Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wrapper.
Fold the wrapper in half over the filling and press the edges to seal, ensuring no air is trapped inside.
Create pleats along the sealed edge if desired for a traditional appearance.
Repeat the filling and folding process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add potstickers in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the potstickers for about 2 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the pan and cover immediately with a lid. Be cautious as it will sizzle.
Lower the heat to medium and steam the potstickers for another 5-6 minutes.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional minute to evaporate any remaining water and crisp up the bottoms.
Repeat with the remaining potstickers, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
Serve hot with soy sauce, or your preferred dipping sauce.
