Instructions
- Put the sauce ingredients ( dark soy sauce, garlic, ginger, scallions,rice vinegar, sesame oil and water) in a medium bowl and whisk together. Keep aside.
- In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients for the filling ( ground chicken, cabbage, scallions, garlic,ginger, black pepper, sesame oil, soy sauce and salt. Mix until well combined.
- To assemble the chicken potstickers, take a potsticker wrapper and place on a work surface. Spoon 2 tsp. of the chicken mixture into the center of the wrapper.
- Dip your finger in the water and rub the edges of the wrapper with water as the glue.
- Fold the wrapper in half, it should look like a half-moon and pinch the middle together. Pleat the the side facing you ( work with one side at a time), then pinch the pleat to seal. Repeat that until you get to the end of the dumpling. I usually make 2-3 pleats per side.
- Repeat the same with the other side, starting at the center again.
- Continue wrapping potstickers until you are out of the filling. Cover the the potstickers with a plastic or dry towel to prevent from drying.
- Heat some oil in a large non-stick pan, then put the dumplings .You will cook them in batches. I usually cook about 20 potstickers and freeze the remaining dumplings.Fry them for 3 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown.
- Add 1/4 cup of water to the pan, cover with the lid and cook about 8 minutes or until they don't stew anymore and water is evaporated.
- Serve these chicken potstickers with the sauce.
- Enjoy!
