Viral Pan Dumplings
Crispy viral pan dumplings made with ground chicken, garlic, ginger, and green onion. These easy dumplings cook directly in the pan with a wonton wrapper pressed on top, creating a golden crispy bottom and juicy filling.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1/2 cup grated carrot this was about 1/2 large carrot for me
- 4 green onions sliced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 20 ish wonton or dumpling wrappers
- 1-2 tsp olive oil for cooking
- 1/4 cup water
for topping
- chili oil
- sesame seeds
- extra sliced green onion
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix ground chicken, shredded carrot, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, onion powder, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
- Heat 1–2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Scoop spoonfuls of the chicken mixture and place them directly into the pan, leaving space between each.
- Place a wonton wrapper over each mound of filling and gently press down so the mixture spreads slightly underneath.
- Drizzle olive oil over the wrappers and cook for 3–4 minutes until the bottoms become crispy.
- Add ¼ cup water to the pan and immediately cover with a lid. Steam for 4–5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the lid and allow any remaining water to evaporate.
- Top with chili oil, sesame seeds, and green onion before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- A stainless steel pan works great for achieving the crispiest dumpling bottoms.
- If the pan gets crowded, cook the dumplings in batches.
- These are great served with soy sauce, chili crisp, or dumpling dipping sauce.
