We are just 1 week away from Chinese New Year (Feb 5th) and I’m ready with this Quick Potsticker Stir Fry recipe that I’ll take for my friend’s new year potluck.  

Potsticker/Dumpling is our MOST favorite Chinese food, literally cooked once or twice every 2-3 weeks and we still cannot get enough of it.

Hence, we always have Ling-Ling Asian inspired frozen entree and sides in our freezer. We have been eating their products for ages as they are the leaders in authentic Asian recipes.

They use “high quality, clean ingredients like freshly sourced vegetables and savory proteins” hence their products are bursting with flavors.

  • Potstickers – homemade, fresh or frozen
  • Cabbage
  • Bell Peppers
  • Onion
  • Mushroom
  • Carrot
  • Scallions
  • Sesame Seeds
  • Hot Sauce
  • Soy Sauce
  • Seasoning
  • Cashews

I starting celebrating Chinese New Year with this friend of mine, who was my colleague initially and by the time I left work, we were almost like family (worked together for 7 years). 

Since we both don’t have much of our family’s close by, we always celebrate each other’s festivals together.

It’s just so much fun learning each other’s culture, values and definitely about food 🙂

For Example: Did you know that eating ‘Dumpling’ on Chinese New Year is considered extremely lucky! 

Hence, I decided to take these Ling-LingChicken and Vegetable Potstickers/dumplings‘ for the celebrations.

Process to Make Potsticker Stir Fry:

I’m going to prepare it two ways:

As an Appetizer – served with sauce

Quick Potsticker Stir Fry – as one of the entree.

I made the potstickers as per the package instructions, which are extremely easy (picture above).

And IF you have not yet tried making them this way, you are MISSING OUT on real soft, fresh and extremely flavorful dumplings.

So, the picture below is of Potstickers that I’ll serve as an appetizer (sauteed in a little bit of the dipping sauce that comes in the package) and I’m serving the rest of the dipping sauce along with it.

Then, I’ll use the same method and saute the potstickers in a mix of fresh veggies, nuts, and sesame seeds (who can resist a Chinese Stir Fry!!!).

This Potsticker Stir Fry is literally a great way to stretch that potsticker package and your dollars further.

Here’s another fact, did you know ‘RED” is an extremely Lucky color for Chinese New Year. 

So, I’m definitely including a lot of red bell peppers, red sauce and our red chopsticks to bring in all the New Year Luck to all of us.

You can also include the color Red by packaging gifts in red color material/ribbons, decorating the house with red lanterns (another Must) and giving Red Envelopes with money to kids.

Pork & Vegetable

Vegetable
