The Best one pan dumpling recipe

One pan dumpling recipe is a staple in many Asian households, and for good reason. The dish is a perfect combination of flavors and textures that will leave you wanting more.

As a busy mom, I love that this recipe can be made in one pan, reducing the amount of dishes I need to wash afterwards. My kids also adore this recipe, and it’s become a regular feature in our weekly meal planning.

The best part? It’s incredibly healthy, with a good balance of protein, complex carbohydrates, and vegetables.

The key to making this dish shine is to use a variety of ingredients, such as pork and vegetables, to create a depth of flavor that will keep you coming back for more. I’ve also found that using a mixture of ground pork and beef creates a meaty flavor that’s hard to resist.

When it comes to cooking technique, the key is to cook the dumplings over medium-low heat, allowing them to steam and cook evenly without burning or overcooking. This technique takes patience but yields incredible results.

🥘Ingredients

For the Dumplings

1 pound ground pork
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 package (about 50) round dumpling wrappers

For the Pan Sauce

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup water

For Garnish

1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Additional sliced green onions

👨‍🍳Directions

1In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and 1/4 cup chopped green onions.
2Mix until well incorporated.
3Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of each dumpling wrapper, moisten the edges with water, and fold to seal, creating pleats along one side.
4Heat vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
5Arrange the dumplings in a single layer, flat side down, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and crisp.
6In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and water.
7Carefully pour the mixture into the skillet around the dumplings, avoiding pouring directly on top.
8Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
9Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let steam for 10 to 12 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through and the wrappers are translucent.
10Uncover and increase heat to medium-high, cooking for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce reduces slightly and becomes glossy.
11Remove from heat.
12Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds, chopped cilantro, and additional sliced green onions over the dumplings.
13Serve directly from the skillet, spooning any remaining sauce over the top.
