Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cup Coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp tbsp Psyllium husk powder
  • 3/4 cup cup Boiling water
  • 1 lb lb Ground chicken
  • 1 cup cup Garlic chives
  • 1 tbsp tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp tbsp Coconut aminos
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 tbsp tbsp Avocado oil
  • 1/2 tsp tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp tsp White pepper
  • 2 tbsp tbsp Rice vinegar (for dipping)(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the wrapper dough: whisk coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt in a bowl. Pour in boiling water and stir until a soft dough forms. Knead briefly, cover, and rest 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the filling: combine ground chicken, chopped garlic chives, ginger, garlic, coconut aminos, egg, white pepper, and salt. Mix well and chill 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Roll the dough into a log and divide into 12 pieces. Roll each piece thin between parchment sheets into 3-inch rounds.

  4. 4

    Spoon 1 tablespoon of filling into each wrapper, fold, and pleat the edges to seal tightly.

  5. 5

    Heat avocado oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Arrange dumplings flat-side down and fry 3-4 minutes until golden and crisp.

  6. 6

    Add 1/4 cup water, cover immediately, and steam 6-7 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

  7. 7

    Uncover and cook 2 more minutes until bottoms re-crisp. Serve hot with rice vinegar for dipping.
