To make the dough, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and half teaspoon of salt in a large bowl.
Gradually pour in the boiling water while stirring with a wooden spoon, then use your hands to bring the dough together into a ball.
Knead the dough for a few minutes until it's smooth, then cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
For the filling, combine the ground pork, green onions, cabbage, carrot, ginger, garlic, one teaspoon of salt, gluten-free soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl. Mix until well blended.
Divide the dough into 24 equal portions, rolling each into a ball.
Flatten each ball into a thin round of about 3 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin. Keep the dough you're not using covered to prevent drying.
Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.
Fold the wrapper over, pinching edges to seal and create a half-moon shape. You can pleat the edges for a more secure seal.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the pot stickers in the skillet, seam side up, being careful not to overcrowd them. Cook until the bottoms are brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully add half a cup of water to the skillet and cover with a lid immediately. Let the pot stickers steam until the water has evaporated, about 5-6 minutes.
Remove the lid and let them crisp up again on the bottom, about 2 minutes more.
Serve the pot stickers warm with additional gluten-free soy sauce for dipping.
