Making your own dumplings is really easy when you use wonton wrappers. These dumplings are really simple and what we created for our wonton soup, but could easily find themselves in any number of... delicious soups. If you love them, try adding them to other soups.
For a vegetarian version, try our mushroom dumpling recipe.
In a bowl combined ground chicken, soy sauce, scallions, garlic, and ginger and mix well.
To make each dumpling, place about 2 teaspoons of ground chicken in the center of each wrapper. When ready to shape, brush two of the edges with water. Fold the dry sides onto the wet sides to form a triangle. Press with your fingers to make sure they are closed.
Place the shaped dumplings onto a baking sheet. Once all the filling and wrappers are used, place the dumplings in the freezer until cold and reserve until needed. To cook, boil in broth or water until cooked through, about five minutes.
