Ingredients

  • 1 cup finely shredded Chinese or napa cabbage
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup minced chives
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1-3/4 pounds lean ground turkey
  • 50 pot sticker or gyoza wrappers
  • 6 cabbage leaves
  • Sweet chili sauce, optional

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the first 12 ingredients. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly.
  2. Place 1 tablespoon filling in center of each pot sticker wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Moisten wrapper edge with water. Fold wrapper over filling; seal edges, pleating the front side several times to form a pleated pouch. Stand dumplings on a work surface to flatten bottoms; curve slightly to form crescent shapes, if desired.
  3. Line a steamer basket with six cabbage leaves. In batches, arrange dumplings 1 in. apart over cabbage; place in a large saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil; steam, covered, 6-8 minutes or until cooked through. Discard cabbage. If desired, serve with chili sauce. Freeze option: Cover and freeze cooled dumplings on waxed paper-lined baking sheets until firm. Transfer to a large resealable plastic freezer bag. To use, microwave dumplings, covered, for 30-45 seconds or until heated through.
