Here is the recipe for the pot stickers we had at the pot luck. Enjoy!
Chicken Pot Stickers
1 Chicken breast
2 tablespoons Garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh Ginger, minced
¼ cup Green Onions, minced
¾ cup chunky Peanut Butter
¼ cup brown Sugar
2 tablespoons Sweet Thai Chili Sauce
1 tablespoon Chili Powder
2 tablespoons fresh Basil leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh Cilantro leaves, chopped
In a hot pan sauté ground chicken, garlic, ginger, and green onions together until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Drain off the excess fat and mix the chicken together in a bowl with the peanut butter, brown sugar, sweet Thai chili sauce, chili powder, basil, and cilantro. Chill the mixture, and then wrap in wonton wrappers. Bring the edges into a corner or simply fold into triangles, using a dab of water to “glue” the edges. In a pot fitted with a steamer basket, bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil. Steam the pot stickers in the steamer basket for 8 to 10 minutes until the wrappers are translucent, and serve with chili mint dipping sauce.
Note: At the pot luck, instead of steaming them, I pan fried them to get the crispy texture. I actually prefer them with the crispy exterior. To pan fry, heat up a small amount of oil in a skillet, and pan fry until the edges are brown and crispy. Flip and repeat on the other side.
