These are probably the most tender dumplings in the world - especially if you roll out the dough as thin as possible.

How to cook Dumplings with chicken

For the dough, sift flour and salt onto a board, make a well, beat an egg into it, add 2 tbsp. l. cold water and melted butter, start kneading the dough so that the egg mixes with the flour. Pouring hot water (incomplete glass), knead a homogeneous soft dough. Let him lie down under the film for 15 minutes.

Step 5

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Carefully pinch the edges to make a semicircle. Connect the two sharp corners and press firmly so that they stick together. Make dumplings from the rest of the dough.

Where to Buy Ingredients

Dumplings with chicken - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use store-bought dumpling wrappers instead of making the dough from scratch?

Yes, you can substitute homemade dough with store-bought dumpling wrappers for convenience. Just moisten the edges slightly with water to help seal the dumplings properly.

How can I make this recipe vegetarian?

Replace the chicken with finely chopped mushrooms, tofu, or a mix of grated vegetables like carrots and cabbage. Keep the seasoning and cooking method the same for a delicious vegetarian version.

What's the best way to store uncooked dumplings?

Place uncooked dumplings on a floured tray in a single layer, freeze until solid, then transfer to a sealed bag. They’ll keep for up to 3 months—no need to thaw before boiling, just cook a minute longer.

Can I pan-fry these dumplings instead of boiling them?

Absolutely! For crispy dumplings, heat oil in a pan, add dumplings in a single layer, and fry until golden on the bottom. Add a splash of water, cover, and steam until cooked through.

What dipping sauces pair well with these dumplings?

Try a mix of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili oil, or a creamy garlic-yogurt sauce for a twist. Sweet chili sauce or a ginger-scallion dip also works beautifully.

How can I prevent dumplings from sticking to the bottom while boiling?

Stir gently right after adding them to boiling water, then occasionally afterward. Using a slotted spoon helps avoid tearing. Adding a teaspoon of oil to the water can also reduce sticking.

Can I use turkey or pork instead of chicken?

Yes! Ground turkey or pork work well—just adjust cooking time slightly if the meat is leaner (turkey) or fattier (pork). Season to taste, as pork may need less added fat.

How do I reheat leftover cooked dumplings?

Steam or microwave with a damp paper towel to keep them moist. For crispiness, reheat in a lightly oiled pan over medium heat until warmed through.

What’s the ideal thickness for rolling out the dough?

Aim for about 2mm thick—thin enough to cook evenly but sturdy enough to hold the filling without tearing. Dust with flour as needed to prevent sticking while rolling.

Usually kharcho is cooked in beef broth. But we decided to break the rules to get a slightly different, but no less tasty dish. Kharcho based on chicken will be more dietary, but in taste it will be the same famous Georgian soup, which you can easily
