Cooking Instructions
- 1
Finely chop the garlic chives, cabbage, and green onion. Squeeze out any excess moisture from the vegetables.
- 2
In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped vegetables, and all the seasoning ingredients. Mix well by hand until the mixture is sticky. (The potato starch helps bind the filling.)
- 3
Once the filling is well mixed, wrap it in the gyoza wrappers. Don’t overfill, or the wrappers may tear.
- 4
Add a little sesame oil (not listed in ingredients) to a cold skillet, then arrange the gyoza in the pan. Once all are arranged, turn on the heat.
- 5
Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat. When the bottoms start to brown, increase to high heat and add enough water to come halfway up the gyoza.
- 6
(For reference, I usually add about 2/3 cup (150 ml) of water, but the amount may vary depending on your pan. You don’t need to add too much.)
- 7
After adding the water, cover again and steam over high heat. Shake the pan occasionally to prevent sticking.
- 8
When most of the water has evaporated, remove the lid, reduce to medium heat, and cook until the remaining water evaporates. (Continue to shake the pan occasionally.)
- 9
When almost all the water is gone, drizzle a little sesame oil (not listed in ingredients) around the edge of the pan. Once the gyoza are nicely coated, turn off the heat.
- 10
Place a plate upside down over the skillet, then carefully flip the pan to transfer the gyoza onto the plate.
- 11
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce!

This is a modification to a gyoza recipe that my mother taught me. You can steam-cook these gyoza before browning them in the frying pan if you'd prefer.You can naturally just use 1 pack of gyoza skins and reduce the amounts of all the other ingredients by half. Still, I think it's more convenient to make more than you need and store some in the freezer for later.These gyoza dumplings will taste best if you use ground meat that's richly marbled.

Addictive Chicken Wing Gyoza Dumplings Addictive Chicken Wing Gyoza Dumplings
They used to sell frozen chicken wing dumplings, but they stopped stocking them in my neighborhood stores, so I took on the challenge!Only a little filling is needed, so you can make these when you have some filling left over from a previous gyoza dumpling batch.It's a bit of a bother if the bones break during cooking. When breaking the joints, hold the chicken in the middle and twist.You can eat them as-is, but the dumplings are also great dipped in a little ponzu sauce.You can do everything up to Step 6 the day before. For 10. Recipe by Musumedaburu cookpad.japan -

I attempted to make tasty meat-free gyoza and came up with this recipe. Without using any meat, you can make tasty gyoza.

Juicy & Crispy Meat Gyoza Dumplings Juicy & Crispy Meat Gyoza Dumplings
I saw a similar recipe in a magazine. In that recipe, the gyoza didn't have garlic, garlic chives or oyster sauce but was seasoned with Chinese chicken stock powder and doubled amount of Japanese leek. I prefer my seasonings on the strong side (though I try not to have it on the day before my massage appointments).The top photo shows how I fried 20 gyoza in one go, so you can't see the gyoza wings very well. Even if you don't make the wings, the bottoms will be crispy and good. If you want to gyoza wings, make 2 lines of 5 in the frying pan and fry in two batches. In that case, double the amount of flour dissolved in water.You might see lump-free (no-sift) flour sold in shops, so if you get hold of that, you can just dissolve it in water instead of hot water. For 20, using large-sized gyoza skins. Recipe by demel_chocola cookpad.japan -

Juicy Pan-fried Gyoza Dumplings Juicy Pan-fried Gyoza Dumplings
I aimed for simple yet juicy gyoza dumplings. A Chinese friend of mine boils, chops and squeezes the Chinese cabbage, adds it to the filling, and then adds quite a lot of water too. So I wondered if you could just use the moisture in the vegetables and I started experimenting.The key is to cook (or quick-freeze) the dumplings as soon as they're filled. The filling is rather watery, so if they leak, the dumplings burn easily. Be sure to secure the dumplings securely! This is a little trick - the ground pork and egg are very cold right out of the refrigerator and it's painful, so take them out at the same time you take out the vegetables to warm up a bit. For 20 large gyoza dumplings. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki cookpad.japan
