Prep Time:30 mins

Total Time:45 mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 250 grams lean ground chicken
  • 100 grams cabbage
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 2 stalks green onions
  • 1 tablespoon ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 20 pieces gyoza wrappers
  • 0 as needed water
  • 0 as needed olive oil cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the cabbage and carrot. Mince the green onions, ginger, and garlic.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped cabbage, carrot, green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix together until well combined.

Step 3

Take a gyoza wrapper and place it in the palm of your hand. Spoon about a teaspoon of filling into the center of the wrapper.

Step 4

Dip your finger in water and moisten the edge of the wrapper, then fold the wrapper in half over the filling. Press to seal, creating pleats along the edge for a traditional look.

Step 5

Continue filling and folding the remaining gyoza wrappers until all the filling is used.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 7

Place the gyoza in the skillet, ensuring they do not touch each other. Cook for about 2 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 8

Carefully add about 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and cover with a lid to steam the gyoza. Steam for about 4-5 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.

Step 9

Remove the lid and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to re-crisp the bottoms.

Step 10

Serve the gyoza hot with a dipping sauce made from equal parts of low sodium soy sauce and rice vinegar or your preferred dipping sauce.
