Cooking Instructions
Step 1
We’re going to make incredibly simple yet special pan-fried dumplings using high-quality, HACCP-certified dumpling wrappers, filled generously with stretchy mozzarella cheese and savory chicken breast. This recipe is designed so anyone can easily achieve delicious results.
Step 2
1. Prepare the Filling Ingredients: First, gather your chicken breast, dumpling wrappers, and a good amount of mozzarella cheese. Using fresh ingredients will enhance the flavor of your dumplings.
Step 3
2. Prepare the Cheese: Since I used a block of mozzarella cheese, I cut it into bite-sized pieces suitable for the dumpling filling. If you’re using pre-cubed cheese, you can skip this step.
Step 4
Cut the chicken breast into pieces similar in size to the cheese. Cutting them into uniform, bite-sized pieces will make filling the dumplings much easier.
Step 5
3. Filling Ingredients Ready: It’s important to consider the size of your dumpling wrappers when determining the amount of filling. Make sure not to overfill, which could cause the wrappers to tear.
Step 6
4. Folding the Dumplings: Dumpling wrappers can dry out quickly. To prevent this, keep any unused wrappers covered with a damp cloth or sealed in a zip-top bag. Take them out one by one as you need them.
Step 7
Lightly moisten the edges of the dumpling wrapper with water; this helps them seal properly. Place a portion of the prepared chicken breast and mozzarella cheese onto the wrapper. Then, carefully fold and seal the dumpling into your desired shape. Don’t forget to moisten the edges!
Step 8
You can shape your dumplings however you like – half-moon, square, or any other creative form. A well-shaped dumpling is even more appealing to eat.
Step 9
5. Pan-Frying: Now it’s time to make your delicious pan-fried dumplings. Heat a frying pan over medium heat with a generous amount of cooking oil. Place the folded dumplings in the hot oil. Pan-fry them, turning occasionally, until both sides are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on the heat to prevent burning.
Step 10
6. Ready to Enjoy: These perfectly pan-fried dumplings are delicious on their own, offering a delightful savory flavor. However, serving them with the specially prepared mustard lemon sauce elevates the taste even further, making them an even more enjoyable treat! These dumplings are a wonderful way to add a special touch to your everyday meals, satisfying both kids and adults alike!
