Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground chicken
• 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons White vinegar
• 4 pieces Garlic clove
• 2 pieces Bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon Black peppercorns
• 1 piece Egg
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped
• 30 pieces Dumpling wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, soy sauce, white vinegar, minced garlic, black peppercorns, and chopped green onions. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 2

Add one beaten egg to the chicken mixture and mix thoroughly to bind the filling.

Step 3

Take a dumpling wrapper and place about a tablespoon of the filling in the center.

Step 4

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold over to create a half-moon shape, and press edges together firmly to seal.

Step 5

Continue filling and sealing the rest of the dumpling wrappers until all filling is used.

Step 6

In a large, non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 7

Arrange dumplings in a single layer in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.

Step 8

Pour in 1 cup of water and cover immediately to steam the dumplings.

Step 9

Let the dumplings steam for about 5 minutes or until the water has evaporated.

Step 10

Remove the lid and allow dumplings to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp up the bottoms again.

Step 11

Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
