Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 bag Trader Joe’s Chicken Gyoza Potstickers (or any frozen chicken potstickers)
- 1 can Trader Joe’s Organic Coconut Cream (or any full-fat coconut cream)
- 3 tablespoons Trader Joe’s Soyaki (or a mix of soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and a splash of sesame oil)
- ½ bottle Trader Joe’s Thai Style Red Curry Sauce (or your favorite store-bought red curry sauce)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced (or use jarred minced garlic—measure with your heart)
Garnishes
- Trader Joe’s Crunchy Chili Onion (or chili crisp), for garnish
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the dumplings in the creamy sauce.
- Make the Sauce: In a baking dish, combine the coconut cream, Soyaki sauce, red curry sauce, and minced garlic. Whisk together thoroughly until a fairly smooth sauce forms, even if the coconut cream starts out a bit chunky.
- Add Dumplings: Place the frozen chicken potstickers evenly into the sauce in the baking dish, ensuring they are well coated and spread out for even cooking.
- Cover and Bake: Tightly cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to retain moisture and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through and tender.
- Finish and Garnish: Remove the foil and the dish from the oven. Spoon a generous amount of Crunchy Chili Onion on top along with a sprinkle of chopped green onions for an added punch of flavor and texture.
- Serve: Serve the baked dumplings hot over a bed of white rice for a complete, cozy meal.
Notes
- You can substitute any frozen chicken potstickers if Trader Joe’s brand is unavailable.
- If you prefer a vegetarian version, swap chicken potstickers for vegetable-filled ones and use vegetarian-friendly curry sauce.
- The sauce can vary in spice depending on the red curry sauce brand; adjust accordingly to your taste.
- For an extra crispy top, uncover and broil for 2-3 minutes after baking, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- This dish reheats well and makes great leftovers for quick meals.
