Ingredients
Stir Fry
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or other high heat oil
- 1 pound frozen potstickers, any variety
- 1 bell pepper, any color, thinly sliced
- 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
- 1 medium carrot, julienned or thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 green onions, sliced, for garnish
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, for garnish
Sauce
- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce, or tamari
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, cornstarch, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes if using. Set the sauce aside near the stove.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium high heat. Add the frozen potstickers in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp. Add 1/4 cup water, cover, and steam for 3 to 4 minutes until cooked through, then transfer the dumplings to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add the bell pepper, snap peas, and carrot. Stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables are bright and tender crisp, then add the garlic and ginger and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Return the cooked potstickers to the skillet. Whisk the sauce again, then pour it over the dumplings and vegetables. Cook while stirring for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve right away, on its own or over rice or noodles.
Notes
Batches: If your skillet is small, crisp the potstickers in two batches so they brown properly.
Veggies: Add broccoli, mushrooms, or baby corn along with the peppers and peas for more vegetables.
Leftovers: Store in the fridge up to 3 days and reheat gently in a skillet with a splash of water.
