This is one of my date night recipes with Josh when we opt to stay in rather than going out. It's such a cute way to spend time & make something together. It's more prep work than cooking, but that's the whole point!

Ingredients

Wontons

70 gyoza wrappers

6 chopped chives

4 chopped scallions

¼ bunch chopped cilantro

1 tsp garlic paste

2 tsp ginger paste

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

salt & white pepper

1 lb ground chicken

Sauce

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp rice wine vinegar

sesame seeds

1 tsp sesame oil

chopped scallions

1 tsp chili crisp

Directions

Wontons

Step 1

In a bowl, mix ground chicken, chives, scallions, cilantro, garlic paste, ginger paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt & white pepper.

Step 2

Lay out as many wrappers as your workspace can hold and set out a bowl of water to dip your fingers in.

Step 3

Take about a teaspoon or more filling and drop it in the middle of each wrapper. Make sure not to overfill so the wonton doesn’t come apart when boiling.

Step 4

Dip your finger in the water and trace along the sides of one wonton wrapper and fold into a triangle. Add water to the triangle corners and place one corner over the other.

Step 5

Once done filling and folding the wontons, drop them into a pot of boiling water for about 4 minutes. Test one first to make sure it cooks through fully. In my experience, 5 minutes overcooked them!

Step 6

Remove & strain with a slotted spoon and continue cooking the rest in batches.

Step 7

Serve with sauce and enjoy!
