Chicken Wontons in Spicy Chili Sauce

Ingredients:

For the Wontons:

1/2 lb (225g) ground chicken

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated ginger

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon white pepper

1 teaspoon cornstarch

25–30 wonton wrappers

For the Spicy Chili Sauce:

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons black vinegar (or rice vinegar)

2 tablespoons chili oil (with flakes)

1 teaspoon sugar

1 clove garlic, minced

Optional: 1 tablespoon hot water to loosen the sauce

Directions:

In a bowl, combine ground chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, garlic, ginger, salt, pepper, and cornstarch. Mix until well combined.

Place 1 teaspoon of filling into the center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten edges with water, fold and seal into a triangle or desired shape.

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add wontons in batches, boiling 3–4 minutes or until they float. Remove with a slotted spoon.

In a separate bowl, mix all ingredients for the spicy chili sauce. Taste and adjust heat/sweetness if needed.

Toss cooked wontons in the spicy sauce or serve with sauce drizzled over. Garnish with more green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
