Pan-Seared Potstickers: Gluten Free, Egg Free, Soy Free, Nut Free
10:04 PM
On Sunday we made dumplings, remember? You can read about them here. They were so delicious the first time around and, since we made so many, we had plenty for another meal. We decided to pan-sear them instead of simply warming them, transforming them from yummy dumplings to phenomenal potstickers! Although we seared them in a butter alternative to give them a more robust flavor, you can use olive oil if you're feeling health-conscious.
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Cook Time: 6 minutes
Ingredients:
1 tbsp. butter alternative (we used Earth Balance) or olive oil

1. Transform Your Dumplings Into Potstickers
Heat a tablespoon of butter alternative (or olive oil) in a saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, drop in your dumplings. Sear them for 2–3 minutes on each side until they brown, then flip them. Drizzle with sweet and sour sauce, pour yourself some sake, and enjoy!
Well, that was easy. Don't you just adore repurposed leftovers?
