Lightened-Up Chicken and Herb Dumplings
Enjoy these delicate chicken and herb dumplings that are perfectly light yet satisfying. The tender chicken mixed with fresh herbs is encased in a soft whole wheat dough, then gently steamed to preserve all the natural flavors. A touch of olive oil enhances the savory filling, making it an ideal meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1 large Egg
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Chives)
PREPARATION
Begin by finely dicing the chicken breast and mincing the mixed fresh herbs. Combine them in a bowl with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper to taste.
In a separate bowl, mix the whole wheat flour with the egg and a splash of water to form a smooth, elastic dough. Adjust water gradually until the dough comes together nicely.
Allow the dough to rest for about 15 minutes, covered with a damp cloth.
After resting, roll the dough on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8 inch thick. Use a round cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out small circles.
Place a small spoonful of the chicken and herb mixture in the center of each dough circle. Carefully fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer and set up a steamer basket. Arrange the dumplings in the basket, ensuring they aren't overlapping.
Steam the dumplings for 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the dough is tender.
Serve warm and enjoy your light yet protein-packed meal.
