Craving Asian food? Try these low carb cabbage wrapped pot stickers! I used ground beef, but you can also use pork or turkey or any ground meat! This is a healthy appetizers – the potsticker – AKA gyoza, AKA dumpling. Whatever you prefer to call them, they’re freaking delicious. Cabbage makes the perfect low-carb sub to traditional wonton wrappers in our classic pot stickers.
Cabbage Wrapped Beef Pot Stickers
INGREDIENTS:
1 Head of Cabbage but weigh out 225 grams cooked
8 oz 95% Ground Beef raw- should yield 6 oz cooked
2 tbsp chopped green onion
1/2 tsp Sesame oil
2 tsp low sodium Soy sauce
1/8 tsp Ground Ginger
1/8 tsp Garlic Powder
Cooking spray
DIRECTIONS:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Wash and cut cabbage in half.
Cut the core from each half of the cabbage by slicing it out in a triangular wedge.
Separate at least at least 8 of the larger outer cabbage leaves from both halves, and then add to boiling water. (Save remaining cabbage for another meal).
Boil for 2 minutes, until cabbage is crisp-tender.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer cooked cabbage to a plate of paper towels to drain.
Prepare the pot sticker filling by combining beef, chopped green onions, sesame oil, soy sauce, ground ginger and garlic powder in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
Place a large nonstick pan over medium heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Form the filling into thick oval patties about the shape and size of your thumb.
Place the filling patties into the pan and cook about 4 minutes on each side, until cutting into one shows no pink throughout.
Wrap cooked patties in cabbage leaves and secure with toothpicks.
ENJOY!
