This is a different take on pot stickers. It starts out with store bought wonton wrappers, add finely chopped chicken, shredded cabbage (packaged cole slaw would save time) and apricot preserves and voila...Apricot-Chicken Pot Stickers. I found this recipe in Favorite Brand Name Appetizers. I haven't had a chance to try this recipe yet, but wanted to keep it on hand. Ingredients:
2 cups water, divided |
1 tablespoon water, divided |
2 small boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces) |
2 cups chopped finely shredded cabbage |
1/2 cup all-fruit apricot preserves |
2 green onions with tops, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
30 (3 inch) wonton wrappers |
prepared sweet and sour sauce (optional) |
Directions:
1. Bring 2 cups water to boil in medium saucepan. Add chicken. Reduce heat to low; simmer, covered, 10 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Remove from saucepan; drain.
2. Add cabbage and remaining 1 tablespoon water to saucepan. Cook over high heat 1 to 2 minutes or until water evaporates, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
3. Finely chop chicken. Add to saucepan along with preserves, green onions, soy sauce, ginger and pepper; mix well.
4. To assemble pot stickers, remove 3 wonton wrappers at a time from package. Spoon slightly rounded tablespoonful of chicken mixture onto center of each wrapper; brush edges with water. Bring 4 corners together; press to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
5. Spray steamer with nonstick cooking spray. Assemble steamer so that water is 1/2 inch below steamer basket. Fill steamer basket with pot stickers, leaving enough space between them to prevent sticking. Cover; steam 5 minutes. Transfer pot stickers to serving plate. Serve with prepared sweet & sour sauce, if desired.
