Ingredients You’ll Need

- 14oz coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons red curry paste
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups chopped bok choy (see notes)
- 25-30 frozen mini chicken dumplings
- Optional Toppings:
- Green onion
- Chili crisp oil
Step by Step Instructions


STEP ONE – Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
STEP TWO – In a medium casserole dish, combine the coconut milk, red curry paste, soy sauce, minced garlic, ground ginger, lime juice, toasted sesame oil, salt, and peanut butter.
STEP THREE – Stir until there are no remaining lumps of peanut butter.
STEP FOUR – Add the chopped bok choy and mix until the bok choy is evenly coated in the peanut butter mixture.


STEP FIVE – Begin arranging the dumplings, seam side up, in the casserole dish. (I prefer to do three rows of dumplings: one down each of the long edges of the casserole dish and one in the center.)
STEP SIX – Once all the dumplings have been added, use a small spoon to coat the tops of each dumpling in the sauce.
STEP SEVEN – Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 35 minutes. After removing from the oven, let the dumpling bake cool for about 5 minutes. Then, remove the aluminum foil and, if desired, top with green onions and chili crisp oil.
The dumpling bake can be served on its own or over rice.
