Michael Symon: The Chew Grilled Chicken Thigh Potstickers Recipe Directions

1. In a food processor, combine chicken thighs, snow peas, 1 tablespoon lime juice, scallions, radishes, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and cilantro. Pulse until just chopped up into small pieces.
2. Dip your finger in water and rub around the edges of a potsticker wrapper. Press a little chicken mixture into the center of the wrapper. Make sure not to overstuff it. Michael said it should be “voluptuous”.
3. Fold in half and press the top and bottom together. Leave the ends open. Then pinch two triangles on the sides of the potstickers. Fold the triangles up toward the top of the fold. This should seal the dumpling nicely. Then tap it on the cutting board so that a nice flat bottom is created.
4. If desired, freeze them for a day or two until you’re ready to cook.
5. Add a drizzle of peanut oil to the pan and bring to medium high heat. Add the potstickers flat-side down and cook until they start to turn golden brown, which should only take a minute. Then add 1/3 cup water to the pan, cover, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Once they’re plumped up and delicious, transfer to serving dish.
6. Stir together 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, ginger, chili flakes, and peanut oil for a nice dipping sauce. Adjust to taste. If the flavor is too strong for you, dilute with water.
7. Serve and enjoy!
