Ingredients:

• For the Dough:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup boiling water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• For the Filling:
• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 2 teaspoons minced ginger
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup chopped green onions
• 1 cup finely shredded cabbage
• Salt and pepper to taste
• For Cooking:
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup water

Instructions:

1. Make the Dough:
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Gradually add the boiling water, stirring continuously until a dough starts to form. Knead the dough on a floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
3. Prepare the Filling:
4. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, ginger, garlic, green onions, and shredded cabbage. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
5. Form the Pot Stickers:
6. Divide the rested dough into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a 3-4 inch circle. Place a small spoonful of the chicken mixture into the center of each circle, being careful not to overfill. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal tightly. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
7. Cook the Pot Stickers:
8. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place pot stickers in the skillet and cook until the bottoms turn golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully add water to the skillet, cover, and let the pot stickers steam until the water has evaporated and the fillings are cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
9. Serve:
10. Remove the pot stickers from the skillet and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Enjoy your homemade chicken pot stickers with family and friends, and relish the fact that you’ve brought a taste of Asian cuisine right into your own kitchen!
