Ingredients

6 pieces Frozen shrimp gyoza (Trader Joe's brand)
2 tbsp cooking oil
3 tbsp water for slurry
1 tbsp flour for slurry

Dipping sauce ingredients

2 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
1/2 tbsp crunchy garlic chili oil

Instructions

Preheat oil in a skillet or saute pan. Place frozen gyoza flat side down.
Flip and cook each side for 1-2 minutes.
Add water and flour in a small bowl and mix until well combined.
Reduce heat to medium-low, slowly pour the water and flour mixture into the skillet, and cover immediately.
Steam gyoza until water has evaporated, and when the crispy skirt turns dry and crispy (you'll know).
Serve immediately with the sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
