Title: Atomic Dumplings Categories: Poultry Yield: 8 Servings 1 pk Wonton skins 1 -(up to) 2 lb Boneless chicken breasts; -cubed 1 cn Coconut milk (Taste of Thai -is OK) 1 Jar Thai; Vietnamese or -other chili-garlic paste 2 -(up to) 3 Thai chilis; fresh, green -and red (seeded is -optional) 1 Bunch fresh cilantro; -roughly chopped 1 sm Portion of water and -cornstarch; make thin paste "douglas allen thompson" Mix cubed chicken with coconut milk, chili paste, peppers and cilantro. Allow to sit for at least an hour to absorb flavours. Then, taking a cube of chicken (or two, depending on size), center it in a wonton skin,gather the four corners of the skin with your fingers moistened in the cornstarch paste, and twirl the skin until the dumpling looks like a Hershey's Kiss. Allow these to rest on waxed paper or a cookie sheet sprayed with PAM. Deep fry these in sufficient oil to cover, a few at a time. I use peanut oil but anything that can take a high heat is fine. Olive oil smokes too much. Remove from hot oil when they float and are golden brown. Be careful, they cook very fast. I usually provide a peanut sauce to dip these in but they're fine by themselves I do not use exact measurements when I cook, so the above are only approximations of what I use. If it looks right, it probably will be fine. These work out great for parties, too. CHILE-HEADS ARCHIVES From the Chile-Heads recipe list.
