Best Shrimp Pot Stickers With Sriracha Ginger Dipping Sauce Recipes

SHRIMP POTSTICKERS (DUMPLINGS) WITH SESAME DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the dipping sauce, whisk the soy sauce, vinegar, scallions, sesame seeds, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a bowl; set aside in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• To make the filling, process the shrimp scallions, water chestnuts, ginger, sherry, oyster sauce, sesame oil, garlic, chili paste, and egg white in a food processor until smooth.
• Arrange wonton wrappers on a work surface. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of each wonton with water, then fold in half, pressing the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers, to make 36 dumplings.
• From here you can either freeze them or immediately cook them.
• To cook them: place about 8 (do not over crowd the pan) in a non stick skillet. Pour water in the bottom of the pan just enough to cover it. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook potstickers for about 5 minutes. Drain any excess water and add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Cook on medium heat for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.

EASY SHRIMP POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• Potstickers: In a food processor, add the shrimp, garlic, scallions, soy sauce and egg. Pulse until combined but still chunky. Remove the mixture to a bowl. To assemble the potstickers, put about 1 teaspoon of filling into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the rim of the wrapper with water. Fold the dough until the ends meet and press the air out of the center towards the edges. Seal by pressing firmly. This is the simplest way.
• To make the classic pleated look: using your thumb and index finger, pinch the corner of the unsealed wonton closed. Using your other hand pull a bit of the unsealed wonton edge toward the pinched corner and pinch to make a slight pleat in the wrapper, continue to pull the loose wrapper in and pleating until you run out of space, then push the air out through the final opening and pinch together. Repeat for the rest of the wontons. You can freeze them at this point on a baking sheet first, and then transfer to a freezer bag.
• Dipping sauce: Stir all the ingredients together in a small serving bowl.
• When ready to cook the potstickers, add oil to a large saute pan. When oil begins to swirl, add potstickers to the pan and cook until golden brown on 1 side. Flip and add 3 ice cubes. Immediately cover the pan to let the potstickers steam and cook through, about 3 minutes. Remove to a large platter and serve with dipping sauce.

GINGER SHRIMP POTSTICKERS

Steps:

• To prepare potstickers, combine first 10 filling ingredients in a food processor; pulse 4-5 times or until coarsely chopped.
• Working with a few wonton wrappers at a time (cover remaining wrappers with a damp towel to prevent drying), spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons shrimp mixture into center of each wrapper. Moisten edges of dough with water; bring 2 opposite corners to center, pinching points to seal. Bring remaining 2 corners to center, pinching points to seal. Pinch 4 edges together to seal. Place potstickers on a large baking sheet sprinkled with cornstarch.
• Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 12 potstickers to pan; cook 2 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. Shake the pan occasionally to prevent sticking. Carefully add 1/2 cup water to pan; cover and cook 4 minutes. Uncover and cook 3 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Repeat steps until all are cooked.
• To prepare sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Serve sauce with potstickers.
• Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven under tinfoil. Good served at room temperature too.
