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

  1. In a bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of a gyoza wrapper. Moisten edges with water and fold to seal, creating pleats.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add gyoza in a single layer and fry until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. 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.
  6. Remove lid and press gyoza gently with a spatula to crisp the bottoms further (smashed effect). Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  7. 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.
