There’s steamed white rice, aromatic potsticker filling, and sweet and salty dumpling sauce — no rolling or shaping required!
Think of this quick and easy recipe as a potsticker in a bowl. It comes from the New York Times bestseller Skinnytaste High Protein: 100 Healthy, Simple Recipes to Fuel Your Day by Gina Homolka, of the popular Skinnytaste food blog.
Like all of her recipes, this one takes a popular classic dish and gives it her trademark healthy spin.
- Ground pork and ground chicken come together for a balanced, flavorful, high-protein base.
- Fresh ginger, green onion, rice wine, and soy sauce add an aromatic burst to every bite.
- Napa cabbage brings a generous boost of fiber, helping you stay satisfied longer.
To finish off these rice bowls, a healthy serving of white rice gets topped with the filling, and a simple dumpling sauce gets drizzled over top. It’s sweet, savory, and rich, with a nice kick of acidity that balances out the meaty filling.
These potsticker bowls are a healthy, weeknight-friendly meal that are equally easy to make on the fly as they are to meal prep in advance.
