Chicken Pot Stickers

"These are a nice change from the more standard beef or pork potstickers, the home made dough is easier than pie (crust that is). Serve with your favorite asian dipping sauce or plain soy sauce."

directions

  • Dough:

  • Sift flour and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the center and fill with vegetable oil and approximately 4 tablespoons boiling water. With a wooden spoon, stir until smooth, adding more boiling water as necessary. Knead about 5 minutes, until elastic. Cover and allow to sit 30 minutes.
  • Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6 inch circle.
  • Thoroughly mix the filling ingredients together (except the oil for frying)
  • Heat oil in a large skillet. Place approximately 1 tablespoon chicken mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold over mixture and press edges together to seal. In small batches, cook in the hot oil until bottoms are golden brown. Place approximately 1/3 cup water in the pan. Cover and continue cooking approximately 5 minutes, until surfaces of the dumplings are well steamed. Serve immediately.

  1. I thought these were REALLY good and my husband LOVED them....personally I thought it was just a little too much dough, so next time I'll just make them smaller and more. Probably could get 16-18 at 6", so at 3" it would double. Other than that fantastic recipe and thanks for posting!
     
  2. This was really simple to put together,and worked really well.I made mine as written,and was really pleased with the results.The flavour was spot on,and the dough just right. A lovely recipe,that I will be cooking again.Thanks for sharing.Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.
     
  3. Oh YUMM YUMM. Steamed dumplings have become my new obsession. This recipe was sure to please. I omited the oil in the dough and did not fry mine. I steamed them in my elec steamer. The flavor is wonderful. I used ground ginger instead of the grated, and I didn't have 5 spice so I used a pinch each of cinnamon, cloves, garlic and cayenne pepper. Fantastic and these really are easy.
     
  4. I replaced the chicken with beef and left out the spice powder and it was AWESOME! I put these in some soup and it was great! thanks
     
  5. We are HUGE steamed dumpling fans and these are simply great! I thought the dough was spot on, and it became tender and silky when steamed. The filling was very flavourful, and I got to use up the 5-spice powder I had made up earlier today. A definite keeper.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/527607/cookswithcattitude.jpg I am a middle aged foodie who has had the luxury of living all over the world except asia. Lived in or grew up in Nigeria, Kenya, Chicago, Russia,and haiti. born in New Zealand, brother born in Austria and many more. I have chronic medication resistant depression after 10 years on anti depressants that worked well but would stop working after a year or two, so now do my best at home living on disabilty. Not a bad thing, many have far worse health issues but i have been able to concentrate on food/cooking. My main passions are my cats. I live in the woods and somehow many starving strays or "dumps" have found the message babies who passed on left in the woods saying "suck lives at xxxx road. Most arrive sick and/or starving. Right now i have 2 that arrived with feline herpes and their attendant 2ndry bacterial infections but are doing beautifully. One old man who was going to be euthanized bc a lady who found him as a stray was moving and didnt want him...well he was a biter and rather grumpy who was in ICU for 3 days with a deadly gut infection which was fixed but he left with a diagnosis of diabetes. 3 months on insulin and finally diet controlled and he caught the herpes virus, respiratory symptom version and turned into a cuddler. Butterscotch must think "why didnt i figure out this cuddle stuff was great before i got sick!" Doing wonderfully even though he has bouts. he and the other kids are my babies. Sadly Butterscotch died of Lymphatic cancer in winter of 2008. A year before Big Boy arrived in my life, starving and weak. Full of affection he jumped into my arms and stayed, turns out he has FIV (cat hiv) so he needs to be watched closely. I love him dearly <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Stockingswapcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/cookbookswap.jpg"> <img src="http://www.caymandesigns.com/foodothers/fallswap.jpg">
