Ingredients
Scale
200g ground chicken
1 cup finely chopped cabbage
2 green onions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp grated ginger
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 package gyoza wrappers (about 30 wrappers)
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 cup kimchi
2 cups cooked steamed rice
1 tbsp rice vinegar (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of a gyoza wrapper. Moisten edges with water and fold to seal, creating pleats.
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add gyoza in a single layer and fry until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour 1/4 cup water into the pan and cover with a lid. Steam for 5 minutes or until filling is cooked through and wrappers are tender.
Remove lid and press gyoza gently with a spatula to crisp the bottoms further (smashed effect). Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Serve hot with kimchi and steamed rice on the side. Optionally drizzle rice vinegar over rice for extra tang.
Notes
Use ground chicken thighs for juicier filling.
Adjust kimchi spiciness to taste.
Gyoza wrappers can be found at Asian grocery stores or frozen section.
Serve with soy sauce or chili oil for dipping.
