Repurposed Leftovers Potstickers



Potstickers makes: ~ 60-70 pot stickers

I used the leftovers from the week (so you can use any combination)
2 Cups White Rice
2 Cups Mixed Stir Fry Veggies
2 Cups Parmesan Chicken

Mix all together in food processor ( everything is the same size)
1. Combine all the ingredients (except for the pot sticker wrapper). I use my hands to thoroughly combine the ingredients.

2. Lay your pot sticker wrapper on a small plate, fill a small bowl with water. Dip your finger into the water and moisten the edge of half the pot sticker wrapper. Put a spoonful of filling (~½ tbs) into the center of the wrapper. Careful to not over fill otherwise you will not be able to seal the pot sticker and the filling will leak out during cooking.

3. Close the wrapper by folding the wrapper in half and pressing the moisten edge together with the un-moisten edge, fold 4 -5 pleats to prevent the pot sticker from opening.

4. Boil in hot water til they come to float, next Heat a pan on medium heat, coat pan with a small amount of oil. When oil is hot, add pot sticks in a single layer, make sure the pot stickers are not touching. Fry until golden brown on both sides (about 2 minutes)

any extra you can freeze for another night
