I use my steamer basket for vegetables, but mostly for dumplings. Sometimes I get them in the freezer section at my favorite Chinese grocery store, or I simply make them with things I have on hand. Rotisserie chicken is one of the fastest starts to a filling and easily flavored in so many ways. I've paired this Chinese-inspired filling with one of my favorite dipping sauces for an easy weeknight meal.

Dipping Sauce:
Directions
Special equipment:
a steamer basket- For the dumplings: In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and vinegar.
- In a large pan on medium heat, add the vegetable oil. Cook until it begins to swirl, then add the ginger, garlic and green onions. Cook briefly until everything is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken, then toss and remove from the heat. Add the sauce and stir to coat. Allow to cool completely or refrigerate until ready to make dumplings.
- To make the dumplings, in the center of each wonton wrapper, add about 1 tablespoon filling. Dip your finger or a brush in water and run it along the outer edges of the wrapper. Fold the wonton in half while pressing out all the air and continue for the rest until done. You can freeze them or steam them at this point.
- In a large pan or pot, add 2 to 4 inches of water. Place a steamer basket on top of the water, making sure that the water does not touch the lowest level of the basket shelf.
- Outfit the basket with parchment paper cut to size with several venting holes and grease lightly with cooking spray. Place the dumplings in the basket and cover. Bring the water to a simmer and steam the dumplings until the wontons are done, 10 to 15 minutes.
- For the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, honey, sambal, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and enough warm water to loosen the sauce. Top with the sesame seeds. Serve with the steamed dumplings.
