Follow these easy steps to create your Prawn & Chicken Dumplings:

1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine the minced chicken, chopped prawns, spring onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
2. Assemble the Dumplings: Take a dumpling wrapper and place about a tablespoon of the filling in the center.
3. Seal the Wrappers: Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold it over to create a semi-circle, pressing the edges together to seal tightly. You can also pinch the edges for added decoration and security.
4. Repeat: Continue this process until all filling is used. Lay the assembled dumplings on a tray lined with parchment paper to keep them from sticking.
5. Choose Cooking Method: Decide whether you want to steam, boil, or pan-fry your dumplings. For steaming, prepare a steamer over boiling water, and for boiling, bring a pot of water to a boil. For pan-frying, heat oil in a skillet.
6. Cook the Dumplings:
– For steaming: Place dumplings in the steamer and steam for about 10-12 minutes.
– For boiling: Drop dumplings into boiling water. Once they float to the surface, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
– For pan-frying: Add dumplings to the skillet and fry for 2 minutes until the bottoms are golden. Then add water (enough to cover the bottom) and cover until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
7. Check for Doneness: Ensure that the chicken and prawns are thoroughly cooked. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
8. Serve Warm: Transfer the cooked dumplings to a serving plate.
