Ingredients

• 250 grams Ground chicken
• 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the green onions and mince the garlic and ginger.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, garlic, ginger, salt, white pepper, and cornstarch. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the chicken mixture onto the center of the wrapper.

Step 4

Dip your finger into the water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal.

Step 5

Bring the two opposite corners of the triangle together and seal with a dab of water to create a traditional wonton shape.

Step 6

Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 7

To cook the wontons, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the wontons in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot.

Step 8

Boil the wontons for 4-5 minutes, or until they float to the surface and the filling is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and serve hot with soy sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
