Ginger Chicken Dumplings
Handmade Ginger Chicken Dumplings made with free-range, hormone-free chicken, ginger, scallions, and a hint of honey. Laoban is a modern take on a traditionally-inspired Chinese dumpling shop, located in Washington, D.C.
This original recipe is a knockout, balancing fragrant ingredients, and a melange of seasoning, and tender chicken perfectly. It's sweet, it's zesty, it's gingery—it's perfect.
