Addictive Chicken Wing Gyoza Dumplings
- 10 Chicken wings - the midsection only
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 Salt and pepper
- 1 tsp Grated ginger
- 50 grams Ground pork
- 3 large leaves Cabbage
- 3 to 4 tablespoons finely chopped Chinese chives
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Grated garlic
- 2 tbsp Katakuriko
- Cut the joint that connects the thick and thin bones in each chicken wing.
- Insert a pair of kitchen scissors along the bone, and cut off the flesh and sinew on the bone.
- Once you've cut away most of the meat with the scissors, use your fingernails to wiggle the meat from the bone up to the joint.
- Bend the joint backwards, twist it firmly and remove both bones.
- After doing 3 of these you'll get used to it!
- It's rather satisfying.
- Be careful not to break the chicken bones... it's messy if you do.
- Make several holes in the skin with a toothpick.
- Put the flavoring ingredients and the de-boned chicken wings in a plastic bag, and macerate.
- Make the gyoza dumpling filling: Mix the ground meat and the flavoring ingredients together well.
- Add the finely chopped cabbage and chives too, and mix mix mix.
- Dust the stuffed wings with more katakuriko, and shake off the excess.
- Deep fry in 340F/170C oil until golden brown.
- Stuff the filling inside the deboned and marinated chicken wings.
- Stuff them well into all the crevices.
- Don't over-fill them, though, or they'll be hard to seal closed.
- Close the cut opening with a toothpick.
- Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
- I like to sprinkle on quite a bit.
- Dust the stuffed wings with more katakuriko, and shake off the excess.
- Deep fry in 340F/170C oil until golden brown.
