Ingredients
  

Frozen Potstickers
  • 1 package Frozen Potstickers/Gyoza
  • 1/4 cup Water (for steaming)
Vegetables
  • 8 oz White Button Mushrooms (or shiitake/baby bella)
  • 2 cups Broccoli Florets
  • 1 cup Green Beans (or asparagus/sugar snap peas)
  • 1 large Carrot (shredded)
  • 1 medium Onion (red onion is a good alternative)
Oils and Sauces
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil (or vegetable/olive oil)
  • 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or avocado oil)
  • 3 tbsp Soy Sauce (Reduced-Sodium) (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tbsp Rice Wine Vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 tbsp Sugar/Honey (or agave syrup)
  • 1 tsp Fresh Ginger (Grated) (or ground ginger)
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
  • 2 tbsp Cold Water (for slurry)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cooking the frozen potstickers according to package instructions. Usually, this involves either steaming, boiling, or pan-frying them.
  2. While the potstickers cook, heat both types of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes until it becomes translucent.
  4. Toss in the mushrooms, broccoli florets, green beans, and shredded carrot. Stir-fry the veggies for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sugar/honey, and grated ginger. In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry.
  6. Pour the sauce over the veggies in the skillet. Add the cooked potstickers and the cornstarch slurry, stirring everything until well combined. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the sauce thickens slightly.
Serving
  1. Scoop the stir fry into bowls and serve hot. Garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.

Notes

Feel free to switch up the vegetables based on what you have available or your personal preferences. For extra flavor, add some crushed red pepper or a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Ensure that the potstickers are fully cooked before adding them to the stir fry for the best texture. If you have leftovers, let them cool completely before storing. Place the stir fry in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can freeze it in a freezer-safe container for up to a month.
