Kais Chicken Potstickers Recipes

CHICKEN POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add 3 cups of coleslaw mix and minced garlic. Cook about 5 minutes or until coleslaw is wilted and garlic is fragrant.
• In a mixing bowl, add the ground chicken, egg, diced scallions, soy sauce, cooked coleslaw mixture, salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix together until well combined. Set aside.
• Prepare your workspace by laying out a small pile of potsticker wrappers and filling a small dish with water (to use for sticking the edges of the wrappers together).
• Place three wrappers out on the table or work surface. Using your finger, gently wet all the way around the edge of the wrapper. Place roughly 1 teaspoon of chicken mixture in the middle of each.
• Start by folding and pinching one end of the wrapper and gently pleat on one side of the wrapper, pressing together the tops of the edges until completely closed. (Use a bit more water to seal the edges if needed). Place each folded potsticker on a separate plate or baking sheet until all are completed. Once all are folded, you can either cook right away or freeze for later use (see notes below).
• If cooking all of the potstickers at the same time, you will need to cook your potstickers in batches.
• For your first batch, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
• Place 12 potstickers (pleated-side up) in the frying pan and cook uncovered for 3 minutes or until the bottoms are nicely browned. Then, add 4 cups of water in the pan and cover. Continue cooking for 6 minutes.
• Uncover and flip the potstickers to the other side. Continue to cook for an additional 4 minutes. Repeat in small batches until all the potstickers are cooked.
• Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve.
• Combine all ingredients for the dipping sauce in a small dish.
• Serve with warm potstickers and enjoy!

KAI'S CHICKEN POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrots, and cabbage; saute until slightly soft, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; cool for 15 minutes. Add chicken, brown sugar, sesame seeds, sesame oil, five-spice powder, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper. Mix until filling is well combined.
• Separate and place wonton wrappers onto your work surface. Spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the filling onto the center of each wrapper. Use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly moisten edges with water. Fold one corner over the filling onto the opposite corner to form a triangle. Fold 2 corners over to meet in the center; press together, squeezing out as much air from the center as you can.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Set a wire rack on a baking sheet.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add 6 to 8 potstickers; cook until golden brown, flipping once halfway, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons chicken broth to the skillet. Steam, covered, until potstickers are no longer pink on the inside, about 1 minute. Transfer to the wire rack.
• Place baking sheet in the preheated oven to keep potstickers warm. Cook remaining potstickers with the remaining oil and chicken broth.
