Ingredients
Scale
-
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 36 wonton wrappers
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
- Dipping Sauce
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Instructions
- For the potstickers: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, cabbage, carrot, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, ginger, sesame oil, white pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
- To assemble the potstickers, place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the filling into the center of the wrapper. Rub the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon, then pinch the edges to seal.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the potstickers in a single layer—do not crowd the pan. Cook until golden and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Place the cooked potstickers on a wire rack set over a baking sheet while you finish cooking the remaining potstickers. Transfer to a serving platter and top with parsley.
- For the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, and sesame oil and whisk to mix.
- Serve with the hot potstickers.
