Lightened-Up Chicken and Herb Dumplings
Enjoy these delicate steamed chicken dumplings bursting with fresh herbs and crisp veggies. Tender shredded chicken, egg whites, and a blend of cabbage, spinach, and aromatic garlic and ginger are wrapped in a light whole wheat dough for a meal that's both satisfying and refreshingly light.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 large Egg Whites
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup shredded Napa Cabbage
1/2 cup fresh Spinach
2 tbsp mixed fresh herbs (parsley, chives, cilantro)
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Ginger
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Finely chop the chicken breast or blitz it in a food processor until coarsely ground.
In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with egg whites, shredded Napa cabbage, spinach, chopped herbs, minced garlic, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Prepare the dumpling dough by mixing the whole wheat flour with enough water to form a smooth, elastic dough. Rest the dough for about 10 minutes, then divide it into small portions.
Roll out each portion on a lightly floured surface and cut into 3-inch circles.
Place a spoonful of the chicken and herb mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold and pleat the edges to seal the dumpling securely.
Arrange the dumplings in a steamer lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the dough is tender.
Serve hot, optionally with a light dipping sauce of your choice.
