Chicken Dumplings Recipe

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk together until well blended.

Add Wet Ingredients

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the water and egg into the well. Mix until a soft dough forms.

Knead the Dough

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Combine Filling Ingredients

In a bowl, mix together ground chicken, chopped green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, grated ginger, sesame oil, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Prepare Filling

Ensure all ingredients are well incorporated. Set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Roll out the Dough

After resting, divide the dough into small portions. Roll each portion out into thin circles, about 3 inches in diameter.

Fill the Dumplings

Place a tablespoon of the chicken filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape and pinch the edges to seal.

Prepare the Broth

In a large pot, combine chicken broth, sliced carrots, sliced celery, and minced garlic. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Season the Broth

Season the broth with salt and black pepper to taste. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

Add Dumplings to Broth

Carefully add the dumplings into the simmering broth. Ensure they are not overcrowded.

Cook the Dumplings

Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 15-20 minutes or until they are cooked through and float to the top.

Serve Hot

Ladle the broth and dumplings into bowls. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade chicken dumplings!
