Chicken Potstickers

I love potstickers and last night Bobby and I ate potstickers, drank wine, and played Rock Band. What a beautiful Saturday night.

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound ground chicken or turkey
• 1/3 cup minced green onions
• 1 tablespoon minced peeled gingerroot
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dark sesame oil
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 30 won ton wrappers
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 4 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
• 1 cup water, divided

Preparation

Add chicken and next 6 ingredients (chicken through garlic) to mixing bowl; stir well.

Working with 1 won ton wrapper at a time (cover remaining won ton wrappers to keep them from drying out), spoon about 1 tablespoon chicken mixture into the center of each wrapper.

Moisten edges of wrapper with water, and bring 2 opposite corners to center, pinching points to seal. Bring the remaining 2 corners to center, pinching points to seal. Pinch 4 edges together to seal. Place pot stickers on a large baking sheet sprinkled with cornstarch; cover loosely with a towel to keep them from drying out.

Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place half of pot stickers in bottom of skillet; cook 3 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned. Add 1/2 cup water to skillet; cover and cook 3 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Place pot stickers on a serving platter; set aside, and keep warm.

Wipe skillet with a paper towel. Repeat procedure with remaining vegetable oil, remaining pot stickers, and remaining water.
