Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 cup cabbage
- 1 medium carrot
- 3 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup boiling water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup water
Instructions
Finely shred the cabbage and grate the carrot. Thinly slice the green onions.
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, cabbage, carrot, green onions, ginger, and garlic.
Add sesame oil, rice vinegar, fish sauce, salt, and pepper to the chicken mixture. Mix until everything is well combined.
In a separate bowl, place the flour. Slowly pour in boiling water while stirring with a fork or chopsticks until the mixture clumps.
Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into quarters and roll each into a log about 1 inch in diameter. Cut each log into 10 pieces.
Roll each piece into a ball, flatten with your palm, and roll into a 3-inch circle.
Place 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold into a half-moon, and press to seal. Pleat the edges to ensure a firm closure.
In a nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Place the pot stickers in the skillet and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet, cover, and let the pot stickers steam for 5 minutes until the wrappers are tender and the filling is cooked through.
Uncover and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing any excess water to evaporate and the bottoms to crisp. Repeat with remaining pot stickers.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, ensuring it is soy-free.
