Italian Sausage and Shrimp Dumplings

Italian sausage had to pinch hit when ground pork wasn't available - and ended up permanently on the roster!

Ingredients

1 link mild Italian sausage, casing removed

8 ounces shrimp, peeled, deveined and diced

1/2 cup coleslaw mix (pre-shredded cabbage)

1 scallion, chopped

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon mirin

1/2 teaspoon salt

18 2-inch won ton wrappers

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Sweet and sour sauce, for serving

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F.

2. Add Italian sausage, shrimp, coleslaw mix, scallion, ginger, sesame oil, mirin, and salt to a food processor and pulse until combined.

3. To assemble, place 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the center of a wrapper. Rub each edge of the wrapper with water. Squeeze all four corners together to fully encase the filling and pinch to completely seal. Repeat to assemble the remaining dumplings.

4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add dumplings in a single layer and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side.

5. Place dumplings on a wire rack over a sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes.

6. Serve immediately with sweet and sour sauce.
