Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to shimmer, which indicates it’s ready for cooking.
Add your frozen potstickers directly into the skillet, ensuring they’re in a single layer for even cooking. Sauté them for about 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally until they turn golden brown and crispy on all sides.
In the same skillet, pour in the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil, sautéing for about 30 seconds.
Toss in the sliced bell pepper, snow peas, broccoli florets, and julienned carrots. Cook these vibrant vegetables for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are tender-crisp.
While the vegetables are cooking, grab a small bowl and mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. This sauce is the heart of your potsticker stir fry.
Return the crispy potstickers to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Pour the prepared soy sauce mixture over everything, stirring well to ensure all the potstickers and veggies are evenly coated in that savory sauce.
To finish off your potsticker stir fry, sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top. Give it a quick toss to distribute the garnishes evenly, and you’re ready to serve.

Notes

Ensure your skillet is hot enough before adding the potstickers to achieve that perfect golden crispiness. Cooking in batches is key to prevent soggy stir fry.
