For best results, ensure the filling is well-chilled before assembling the pot stickers. This will help prevent the wrappers from becoming soggy. Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the pot stickers. Work in batches to ensure even cooking and browning. Experiment with different fillings! Try adding shrimp, chicken, or tofu for a vegetarian option. If you don't have water chestnuts, you can substitute them with jicama for a similar crunchy texture. Adjust the amount of chili oil in the dipping sauce according to your spice preference. You can also add a dash of sesame oil for extra flavor.
