Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground chicken
• 100 grams Spinach leaves
• 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
• 0.5 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.25 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 24 Whole wheat dumpling wrappers
• 0.5 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Start by finely chopping the spinach leaves and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the bowl.

Step 3

Stir in the ground chicken, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed.

Step 4

Lay out the whole wheat dumpling wrappers on a clean work surface. Place about 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture in the center of each wrapper.

Step 5

Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wrapper, then fold in half over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly to seal, ensuring there are no gaps.

Step 6

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the potstickers in the skillet, seam-side up. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 7

Once browned, carefully add 0.5 cup of water to the skillet and cover immediately with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and let the potstickers steam for about 6-8 minutes, or until the water has evaporated.

Step 8

Remove the lid and allow the potstickers to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again.

Step 9

Serve the potstickers hot with a side of Greek yogurt mixed with a dash of lemon juice and dill if desired.
