Ingredients

Rice Mixture

  • 1 ½ cups long grain white rice
  • 2 ¼ cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon butter (or plant-based butter)
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Toppings

  • 24 frozen chicken dumplings (potstickers)
  • 2 cups broccolini, cut into bite-sized pieces (can substitute broccoli)

Sauce

  • 5 tablespoons soy sauce (or coconut aminos or Tamari)
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon shallot, minced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce

Spicy Mayo

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 teaspoons Sriracha (more if desired)

Optional Garnishes

  • Green onions, sliced
  • Chili garlic sauce
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat your oven to 375℉ (190℃). Spray a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Combine Rice Mixture: In the prepared casserole dish, combine 1 ½ cups long grain white rice, 2 ¼ cups chicken broth, 1 tablespoon butter, 2 teaspoons rice vinegar, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt. Mix everything together evenly to ensure the rice is well distributed in the liquid.
  3. Arrange Dumplings and Broccolini: Place 24 frozen chicken dumplings (potstickers) evenly on top of the rice mixture. Scatter 2 cups of broccolini pieces over the dumplings and rice.
  4. Bake: Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil, tenting it slightly so it doesn’t touch the dumplings (to prevent sticking). Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the dumplings are cooked through.
  5. Prepare Sauce & Spicy Mayo: While the bake is cooking, mix all the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, extra virgin olive oil, hot sauce, rice vinegar, minced shallot, garlic, grated ginger, honey, sesame oil, chili garlic sauce) in a mason jar or small bowl and shake or whisk until combined. Separately, mix the spicy mayo by combining mayonnaise with Sriracha, adjusting the heat level to your preference.
  6. Serve: Once the bake is done, remove the foil and drizzle the prepared sauce and spicy mayo evenly over the casserole. Garnish with sliced green onions, chili garlic sauce, and sesame seeds as desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Substitute broccolini with broccoli if unavailable.
  • To make it vegan, use plant-based butter and vegan dumplings, and substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
  • Adjust the amount of Sriracha in the spicy mayo depending on your spice tolerance.
  • If you prefer crispier dumplings, uncover for the last 5-10 minutes of baking.
  • Leftovers keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
