Ingredients

  • ½ lb ground chicken
  • 16 count wonton wrappers
  • 2 count scallions
  • 1 tbsp ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Chop scallions into thin rings. Mix ground chicken, scallions, ginger, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl until just combined.

  2. 2

    Place 1 tsp chicken filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Wet edges with water, fold in half, then bring corners together to seal.

  3. 3

    Add 1 inch of water to a steamer pot or bamboo steamer lined with parchment. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Arrange dumplings in a single layer on the steamer, leaving space between each. Cover and steam until they float and wrappers turn translucent, ~8 minutes.

  5. 5

    Divide between two bowls. Stir remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce with a splash of water, pour over dumplings, and serve immediately.
