Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat chicken dry. Toss with flour, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1/4 cup neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Working in batches to avoid crowding, fry chicken 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer cooked chicken to a plate. In the same skillet, fry potstickers 3–4 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

  5. Step 5

    Whisk soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl to make a sauce.

  6. Step 6

    Return chicken to skillet, pour sauce over top, toss gently to coat, and serve immediately with potstickers.
