Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and heat a large skillet over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, garlic, ginger, and chili crisp if using.
- Add neutral oil to the skillet, then place the frozen dumplings flat-side down and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden on the bottom.
