Cabbage Rolls with Spicy Chicken

These cabbage rolls are wonderful steamed and served with a sweet dipping sauce.

1 lb ground chicken
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 tbsp minced garlic
1/2 tbsp minced ginger
1/2 tbsp sriracha
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 large head of cabbage or bok choy

Separate the larger leaves of the bok choy or cabbage and place in boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove and run under cold water or put in an ice-bath.
Mix all other ingredients in a large box with your hands. Meanwhile, set-up your steamer basket or heat the oven to 400. Place approximately 1 tbsp of chicken mixture in each cabbage leaf and roll up tightly into a small bundle. Place fold side down in a well greased steamer basket or on a well-greased baking dish. Once all the chicken is rolled up, steam approximately 8 minutes or cook in the oven 15. Serve with dipping sauce.

Dipping Sauce:
Whisk 2 tbsp soy sauce with 1 tbsp honey and 1 chopped green onion.


You can purchase a steamer basket, like this one, from Bed, Bath and Beyond or here.
