For Kyle, I made his favorite, crab rangoons. We have been calling them rangoonies for years and lo and behold while looking for a recipe, Hungry Girl calls them the same thing. Her recipe is great and we loved it alongside the potstickers for a wonton wrapper fest. The recipe is here.
I love potstickers. So I decided to try my own. After experimenting with a few recipes I found online and the most awesome Asian meatball recipe from my cocktail party cookbook I came up with this simplified recipe. I find them delicious and I hope you do to.
1/2 lb ground chicken
2 scallions
2 cloves Garlic
quick shake Ground ginger
quick shake Ground cayenne
Salt
Black pepper
2 tsp Fish sauce
1-2 tps Wosterchire sauce
1 TBS Oyster sauce
1 TBS Dijon mustard
Wonton wrappers- I used 1/2 a package of Nasoya brand
broth- any kind
1. Mix everything except the wonton wrappers and broth together in a bowl
2. Put a small amount of filling in a wrapper, wet all 4 edges of the wrapper and pinch closed to seal
3. (do this part in batches) Heat a small amount of oil in a pan and when hot add 1 layer of the dumplings. Cook until browned on 1 side. Pour in a small amount of broth in the pan to release the potstickers. Once most of the liquid has cooked off turn the potstickers and cook the other side for 3-5 more minutes.
