Pot StickerPosted by Cookin'Mom at recipegoldmine.comPreparation time: About 1 hourCooking time: About 1 hour (about 15 minutes per batch)Traditional pot stickers are delicious, but they do take time to make. It isn’t hard to speed up the preparation, though — instead of using home made wrappers, just start with the purchased ones (gyoza) sold in some grocery stores and Asian markets.2 small whole chicken breasts (about 3/4 pound each), skinned, boned, and split1/4 cup sesame oil1 cup finely chopped celery1/2 cup chopped green onions (including tops)3 tablespoon dry sherry2 tablespoons cornstarch1 teaspoon granulated sugar1/2 teaspoon salt1 (14 ounce) package pot sticker wrappers (gyoza) or wonton skins1/4 cup salad oil1 cup waterRice wine vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oilRinse chicken and pat dry, then chop finely. Place in a bowl and stir in sesame oil, celery, onions, sherry, cornstarch, sugar, and salt.Set out 6-8 wrappers at a time; keep remaining wrappers tightly covered. Mound 2 teaspoons of the filling on each wrapper. To shape each pot sticker, fold dough in half over filling. Pinch about 1/2 inch of curved edge closed; continue to pinch closed, forming 3 tucks along dough edge, until entire curve is sealed. Set pot sticker down firmly, seam side up, so it will sit flat. Cover lightly until all pot stickers are shaped.At this point, you may place pot stickers in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until hard, then transfer to a heavy plastic bag, seal, and return to freezer for up to one(1) month. Cook without thawing as directed below.*For fresh pot stickers, place a wok over medium heat; when wok is hot, add 1 tablespoon of the salad oil. When oil is hot, add 12 pot stickers, seam side up.
