One Pan Dumpling Bake

Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe

This one-pan dumpling bake is so easy to make and tastes phenomenal! If you like dumplings (or gyoza or potstickers), you've got to try this fun way to make them.

While it may affectionately be referred to as a dumpling casserole, you're actually poaching the dumplings in coconut milk and sauces, creating a wonderful creamy sauce.

Dumpling Bake Features

These delicious baked dumplings come together quickly and are made in one pan!
You'll pair the dumplings with bok choy, making this a complete meal you can serve on its own or with rice.

Ingredients

Dumplings - I've made this dish with chicken, pork, and shrimp dumplings. I think shrimp dumplings (the Trader Joe's ones are called gyoza) pair best with the flavors in the sauce, but all of them will work.
Coconut Milk - both regular and light coconut milk work for this dish. I like Thai Kitchen's coconut milk because it's quite creamy, but feel free to use your preferred brand.
Bok Choy - you can use baby bok choy or regular bok choy for this recipe, or swap for spinach if you'd prefer.
Sauces - use a combination of Thai red curry (swap for yellow curry if you want less spice), soy sauce, honey, and rice wine vinegar to flavor the sauce.
Aromatics - flavor the sauce with fresh ginger and garlic. Add green onions to garnish the dish.
Toppings - sprinkle white and black sesame seeds on the finished dish. For a bit of heat, drizzle on some chili crunch or chili oil.

Baked Dumpling FAQs

Should I use dumplings, potstickers, and gyoza?

Dumplings is the broad catch-all term that includes potstickers and gyoza. Potstickers (Chinese origin) are dumplings that can be steamed or fried, similar to gyoza (Japanese origin). Any of them will work for this recipe!

Can I substitute the coconut milk for coconut cream?

Yes, you can use coconut cream, but the sauce will be a little thicker. I recommend covering the pan with aluminum foil or a lid so the dumplings still steam.

What if I don't like spicy food?

Thai red curry is a little spicy (I didn't serve this recipe to my kid), so you can substitute it for Thai yellow curry, which is less spicy, or swap it out for the following mixture: 1 tablespoon turmeric powder, an additional clove of minced garlic, and an additional teaspoon of minced ginger.
