Ingredients

  • 1 package gyoza / dumpling wrappers about 40
  • 1 pound ground chicken or pork
  • 1 cup cabbage finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup green onions chopped
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp ginger grated

Instructions

  1. Combine the ground chicken, cabbage, green onions, sesame oil, and ginger in a bowl. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.
  2. Fill a small bowl with water. Dip your finger in the water and wet the outside of one gyoza wrapper. Scoop about 1 tbsp of the meat mixture onto the wrapper.
  3. Starting on the right side, pinch a small section of the wrapper together. Fold the top layer over on itself, pressing it down and sealing it with the bottom layer (watch my video above for a visual). Continue until the entire wrapper is folded and sealed. Continue until the meat is all used.
  4. Add several dumplings to a large pan with oil over medium high heat. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom of each is starting to brown. When they are golden brown, turn the heat down to medium low and add 1/4 cup of water.
  5. Put a lid on the pan and let the dumplings cook for 7-8 minutes, until the meat is cooked through. Check the dumplings half way through the cooking time. If the water has all cooked up, add a few tablespoons more.
  6. Once the gyoza are finished, enjoy them while they are hot!
