About
All the crispy, savory goodness of traditional Japanese dumplings—without any of the tedious folding! Smash Gyoza pairs ground chicken or pork, shredded cabbage, carrots, ginger, and garlic with a gyoza wrapper smashed right on top in a hot skillet. Pan-fried to golden perfection in under 25 minutes and served with Kikkoman® Gyoza Dipping Sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 cup green cabbage, shredded
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ pound ground chicken or pork
- ⅓ cup carrot, grated
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger, peeled and grated
- 1 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 8 gyoza wrappers
- For Serving
- Green onions
- ½ cup Kikkoman® Gyoza Dipping Sauce
Directions
- Stir together cabbage and salt in a small bowl. Set aside to soften for 10 minutes. Drain liquid from cabbage and squeeze out excess moisture using a paper towel.
- Add cabbage to a mixing bowl with meat, carrots, green onion, garlic and ginger. Mix well to combine.
- Heat vegetable oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet for 2 minutes. Scoop heaping tablespoon-sized mounds of filling onto skillet leaving space between each for gyoza wrappers.
- Place gyoza wrappers on top of each mound of filling and smash with a spatula to flatten. Cover with lid and cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip each gyoza and cook 1 minute longer, uncovered.
- Repeat with remaining filling. Add extra oil as needed.
- Serve hot topped with extra green onion and Gyoza Sauce for dipping.
