INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1 large Egg White
3 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs (Parsley, Dill, Chives)
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
60 ml Water
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Finely mince the chicken breast or pulse it in a food processor until coarsely ground.
In a bowl, combine the chicken with the finely chopped fresh herbs, minced garlic, egg white, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly to blend the flavors.
In a separate bowl, mix the whole wheat flour with water and a pinch of salt until a smooth dough forms. Knead briefly, then cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
Divide the dough into small portions and roll each into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter.
Place a teaspoon of the chicken and herb filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal.
Steam the dumplings in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 8-10 minutes, until the filling is fully cooked and the dough is tender.
For added flavor, heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat and gently pan-fry the steamed dumplings for 1-2 minutes per side to lightly brown the exterior.
Serve warm and enjoy these protein-packed, flavorful dumplings as a satisfying meal.
