Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
• 1 cup carrots, grated
• 4 stalks green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 40 pieces wonton wrappers
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, shredded cabbage, grated carrots, chopped green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, low sodium soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 2

Lay a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Place about 1 tablespoon of the filling mixture in the center of the wrapper.

Step 3

Using a fingertip, lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper in half to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly together to seal. Pleat the edges if desired.

Step 4

Repeat the filling and folding process with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Carefully arrange the potstickers in the pan in a single layer, making sure they are not touching or overcrowded.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Add 1/2 cup of water to the pan, covering immediately with a lid to avoid splattering, and reduce heat to medium. Steam the potstickers for 5 minutes or until the water has evaporated.

Step 9

Remove the lid and continue to cook for an additional 1 minute to re-crisp the bottoms.

Step 10

Transfer the cooked potstickers to a serving plate.

Step 11

Repeat the process with the remaining oil, potstickers, and water.

Step 12

Serve hot with your favorite low sodium dipping sauce.
