Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 cup cabbage
• 1 medium carrot
• 3 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup boiling water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup water

Directions

Step 1

Finely shred the cabbage and grate the carrot. Thinly slice the green onions.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, cabbage, carrot, green onions, ginger, and garlic.

Step 3

Add sesame oil, rice vinegar, fish sauce, salt, and pepper to the chicken mixture. Mix until everything is well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, place the flour. Slowly pour in boiling water while stirring with a fork or chopsticks until the mixture clumps.

Step 5

Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Step 6

After resting, divide the dough into quarters and roll each into a log about 1 inch in diameter. Cut each log into 10 pieces.

Step 7

Roll each piece into a ball, flatten with your palm, and roll into a 3-inch circle.

Step 8

Place 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold into a half-moon, and press to seal. Pleat the edges to ensure a firm closure.

Step 9

In a nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Place the pot stickers in the skillet and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 10

Carefully add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet, cover, and let the pot stickers steam for 5 minutes until the wrappers are tender and the filling is cooked through.

Step 11

Uncover and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing any excess water to evaporate and the bottoms to crisp. Repeat with remaining pot stickers.

Step 12

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, ensuring it is soy-free.
