Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams lean ground chicken
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 50 grams grated carrots
- 100 grams cabbage
- 30 pieces wonton wrappers
- 1 can vegetable oil spray
- 50 milliliters water
Instructions
Finely chop the green onions, grate the ginger, mince the garlic, shred the cabbage, and grate the carrots.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground chicken, green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated carrots, and cabbage. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling mixture in the center of each wrapper.
Wet the edges of the wonton wrapper with water, fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, and seal the edges by pressing firmly.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray the skillet with vegetable oil spray.
Place the dumplings in a single layer in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
Reduce the heat to low. Carefully add 50 milliliters of water to the skillet and immediately cover with a lid to steam the dumplings for about 5 minutes.
Once the water has evaporated, remove the lid. Allow the dumplings to cook for another 2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.
Transfer the dumplings to a serving plate and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as soy sauce or chili oil.
