Lightened-Up Chicken and Herb Dumplings
Enjoy a rejuvenated twist on classic dumplings with lean chicken, fresh herbs, and a whole wheat twist, lightly steamed to lock in flavors and moisture. Each dumpling bursts with aromatic herbs and tender chicken, making for a satisfying meal that’s as nourishing as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast (cooked and shredded)
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1 Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Cilantro), chopped
1 tsp minced Ginger
1 Scallion, finely chopped
3 tbsp Water
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken breast with the egg white, chopped fresh herbs, minced ginger, and chopped scallion. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Gradually add the whole wheat flour and water to the chicken mixture, stirring until a dough begins to form. Adjust the water or flour if necessary to achieve a pliable yet slightly sticky dough.
Lightly dust a work surface with whole wheat flour and roll the dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into small circles (or desired dumpling shape) using a cookie cutter or a glass.
Place a small dollop of the chicken and herb filling onto each dough circle. Fold over to create a half-moon shape and pinch the edges to seal firmly.
Arrange the dumplings in a single layer in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dumpling dough is cooked through and tender.
Remove from the steamer and serve warm with your favorite light dipping sauce or a drizzle of low-sodium soy sauce.
