Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Ground chicken breast
- 100 grams Cabbage
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 10 grams Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 25 pieces Gyoza wrappers
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Finely shred the cabbage and place it in a large bowl.
Chop the green onions and grate the ginger, adding both to the bowl with the cabbage.
Add the ground chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, and minced garlic to the cabbage mixture. Mix everything together thoroughly until well combined.
Lay out the gyoza wrappers on a flat surface and prepare a small dish of water.
Place 1 teaspoon of the chicken mixture onto the center of each gyoza wrapper.
Dip your finger into the water and moisten the edge of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over, pressing the edges together to seal and pleat if desired.
Repeat this process until all the filling is used.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Arrange the gyoza in the pan, flat side down, ensuring they aren't touching. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy.
Carefully add water to the pan, cover immediately, and let the gyoza steam for about 5-6 minutes.
Uncover and let any remaining water evaporate, letting the bottom crisp up again for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Serve the low-fat chicken gyoza hot with low-sodium soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
