Oven-Baked Dumplings with Peanut Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish featuring frozen dumplings baked in a creamy peanut sauce, complemented with broccoli and topped with fresh garnishes.
Ingredients
- Garnish: ¼ cup sliced green onions
- Garnish: ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Garnish: 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Garnish: 2–4 tablespoons chili crisp (optional, for spice)
- Sauce: 2 cups broth or water
- Sauce: ⅔ cup creamy peanut butter
- Sauce: 3 garlic cloves, minced
- Sauce: 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- Sauce: 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- Main Ingredients: 14–20 frozen dumplings (depending on dish size)
- Main Ingredients: 2 cups broccoli florets, trimmed into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a medium casserole dish or an oven-safe braiser.
- Pour the broth into the baking dish, then add peanut butter, minced garlic, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Whisk together until mostly blended.
- Place the frozen dumplings into the dish with the sauce, flat-side down, and spoon some sauce over the top to coat.
- Nestle the broccoli florets between and around the dumplings, ensuring they are partially covered in the sauce.
- Cover the dish with a lid or foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the cover and stir gently.
- Let the dish sit uncovered for about 5 minutes for the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Sprinkle with green onions, cilantro, sesame seeds, and chili crisp if desired.
- Serve straight from the baking dish, allowing the dumplings to soak up the peanut sauce.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the amount of chili crisp according to your spice preference.
- For a vegetarian option, ensure the broth used is vegetable-based.
