For the Filling
Combine the following items together and refrigerate for 4-5 hours

• 1 regular tray of ground chicken – 16 oz
• 5-6 cloves of garlic (peeled, grated)
• 1″ ginger (peeled, grated)
• Salt (to taste)
• Sugar – 1 tea spoon
• Corn Starch – 1/2 table spoon
• Baking Powder – 1/2 tea spoon
• Soy Sauce (I prefer to use the medium/thick variety) – 1 table spoon (or to taste)
• Black Pepper Powder – 1 tea spoon (I prefer freshly ground powder)
• Shaoxing Wine – 1 tea spoon (or to taste)
• Sesame Oil – 1 table spoon
• Green Onion – 1 bunch, finely chopped
• Napa Cabbage (shredded, pre-soaked in hot salted water for about 1/2 hour; squeeze out excess water; still needs to remain crispy and not entirely soggy)

For the Dumpling Sauce

• Salt (to taste)
• Sugar – 1 tea spoon
• Rice Vinegar – 1/2 teaspoon
• Garlic – 1 clove (peeled, finely grated)
• Soy Sauce (thin quality) – 2 tablespoon
• Hot Pepper Flakes – to taste
• Hot Chilly Oil – to taste
• Sesame Oil – 1 tea spoon
• Finely sliced green onion rings

Preparation
I am using store bought round pot sticker wraps for this preparation. You can make your own wraps though!

• Put the wraps outside for 4-5 hours or overnight to get to room temperature
• Separate each wrap and put some water along the semi-circle
• Fill in with enough (not over loaded) meat mixture and close the wraps (I would suggest looking at some videos on how to close the wraps)
• Heat a large pan and drizzle some olive oil
• Place the dumplings on the pan (leave enough room to expand) and cover cook on Medium-High for few minutes
• Add 1 cup of cold water (not ice cold), reduce heat to Medium and continue to cover cook
• Wait for the water to be absorbed completely – should take around 15 minutes
• Serve hot with the dumpling sauce (I also like it with chilly oil with pepper flakes, peanuts and fried tofu)

* Please note that this variety ranks a little high on hotness; please adjust relevant ingredients according to taste
* This recipe will not taste similar if you replace Napa Cabbage with ordinary variety, and olive/sesame oil with any other type
