We got to visit a dim sum restaurant on a trip to NYC recently, and I fell in love with this stuff! It's basically a steamed dumpling with meat and veggies inside. This particular one is called Chicken Shu Mai. Pretty easy to make. If you don't have a steamer handy, you could also use egg roll wrappers and bake or fry these.

Ingredients For chicken dim sum

  • 1 lb
    ground chicken (or substitute meat of your choice)
  • 1/2 c
    mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1/2 c
    green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 c
    carrots, finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp
    soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp
    sugar
  • 1 Tbsp
    fresh ginger, finely chopped

How To Make chicken dim sum

  • 1
    Mix all ingredients in bowl.
  • 2
    Place about 1 tablespoon of meat mixture on each wonton wrapper, and bring all corners together in center. See photo above. It's easier to fold these with clean, dry hands.
  • 3
    Place dim sum in a bamboo steamer or whatever you have, making sure to space them a little bit apart or they will stick together.
  • 4
    Steam for about 15 minutes or until meat is cooked through. Serve with extra soy sauce for dipping if you like.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
