Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground chicken
- 12 large Green cabbage leaves
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Grated ginger
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 3 stalks Green onions (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cabbage leaves. Remove the leaves gently from the cabbage head and blanch them in a pot of boiling water for about 2-3 minutes until they are tender. Then, transfer them to an ice bath to cool and pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, coconut aminos, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onions, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Place a blanched cabbage leaf flat on a clean surface and add about a tablespoon of the chicken filling to the center.
Fold the leaf over the filling to create a potsticker, tucking in the sides and securing the edge by pressing the cabbage together.
Repeat with the remaining cabbage leaves and filling.
Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the cabbage-wrapped potstickers in the skillet, seam side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom turns golden brown.
Pour in the water and immediately cover the skillet with a lid to steam the potstickers for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
Remove the lid and let any excess water evaporate, allowing the bottoms to crisp up again for another 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the potstickers to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds.
Serve hot with a side of coconut aminos for dipping, if desired.
