Ingredients
-
12–16 potstickers (fresh or thawed if frozen)
-
1 red bell pepper, sliced
-
1 carrot, cut into matchsticks
-
1 cup snap peas or snow peas
-
2 green onions, sliced
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
½ inch ginger, minced
-
2 tbsp soy sauce
-
1 tbsp rice vinegar
-
½ tsp sesame oil
-
½ tsp honey or sugar

½ tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water (slurry)
-
Oil for cooking
-
Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
-
Whisk sauce ingredients (except slurry) in a bowl; reserve.
-
Heat oil in skillet over medium-high. Place potstickers flat side down, fry 3–4 min until bottoms golden.
-
Add ¼ cup water, cover, steam 3–4 min, then uncover and crisp 1–2 min.
-
Push potstickers aside. Add garlic and ginger, stir 30 sec. Add veggies, stir-fry 2–3 min, then snap peas 1–2 min.
-
Pour sauce and slurry over everything, toss gently until sauce thickens, ~1–2 min.
-
Turn off heat, garnish with green onion and sesame seeds.
Notes
-
Use just enough water when steaming so potstickers don’t get soggy.
-
Crisp again after steaming for best texture.
-
Swap or add proteins (shrimp, tofu, chicken) if desired.
