Ingredients for Potsticker and Rice Bake
- Rice: Use long-grain white rice, such as jasmine or basmati, for the best fluffy texture.
- Other Vegetables: If you don’t have bok choy, use cabbage, spinach, mushrooms, or broccolini. All are delicious options!
- Spicy Toppings: Add a drizzle of spicy mayo, sriracha, or chili crisp for a little heat.
- Frozen Potstickers: Use your favorite filling! Gyoza or mandu are great substitutes and work just as well.
- Dipping Sauce: If your potstickers came with a dipping sauce, drizzle it over the finished bake. If not, make my homemade potsticker sauce!
How to Make Potsticker and Rice Bake
Time to give those frozen potstickers a whole new purpose! If you want, add a crunchy cucumber salad, edamame, or roasted broccoli on the side of your dumpling bake; dinner is set! Here’s how to make it!
- Stir Ingredients: Preheat the oven to 400ºF, then spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Add long-grain white rice, cups chicken broth, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to the casserole dish, then stir to combine.
- Add Veggies: Add the chopped bok choy and shredded carrots to the top of the rice mixture.
- Bake: Place the frozen potstickers on top of the veggies, cover the prepared casserole dish with aluminum foil, then bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and check that the rice is fully cooked. If not quite done, cover and continue cooking until the rice is tender.
- Serve: Drizzle sauce (the one that comes with the potstickers or homemade) over the dumplings, then garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, and serve.
