Ingredients

• 200 grams plant-based chicken strips
• 24 pieces wonton wrappers
• 1 cup cabbage
• 1 medium carrot
• 2 stalks scallions
• 1 tablespoon ginger
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup water

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the plant-based chicken strips, cabbage, carrot, and scallions. Grate the ginger and mince the garlic.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the chopped plant-based chicken, cabbage, carrot, scallions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of the wrapper.

Step 4

Lightly dampen the edges of the wonton wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a half-moon shape and press the edges firmly to seal.

Step 5

Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling, keeping the prepared pot stickers covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Arrange the pot stickers in a single layer, flat side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 7

Carefully pour the water into the skillet and immediately cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to low and let the pot stickers steam for 5-7 minutes until the wrappers are translucent and the filling is cooked through.

Step 8

Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high to allow any remaining water to evaporate and to crisp the bottoms of the pot stickers again, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Serve the pot stickers hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
