Lightened-Up Chicken and Herb Dumplings
Enjoy these delicate, steamed dumplings filled with lean chicken and a medley of fresh herbs that add brightness and flavor. The whole wheat dough encases a savory filling seasoned with garlic and ginger, delivering a wholesome meal that's both light and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast (approx. 142g)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Flour (approx. 43g)
1 large Egg White (approx. 33g)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, minced
2 tbsp Water
PREPARATION
Finely mince or process the chicken breast in a food processor until it reaches a coarse, ground texture.
In a bowl, combine the minced chicken with chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
In a separate bowl, mix whole wheat flour with the egg white and water. Stir until a smooth dough forms, adjusting with a tiny bit more water if needed.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough thinly and use a round cutter (or the rim of a glass) to cut out circles, about 3 to 4 inches in diameter.
Place a small spoonful of the chicken and herb mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
Arrange the dumplings in a steaming basket lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the dough is tender.
Serve warm, optionally with a light dipping sauce of your choice.
