Ingredients

• 1 lb ground chicken
• 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon turmeric
• 3 Tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
• 12–15 sheets tapioca paper
• 1 jar Get Saucy™ Tikka Masala
  

Instructions 

1. In a bowl, combine ground chicken, coconut aminos, sea salt, garam masala, ginger, turmeric, and chopped cilantro. Mix until well combined.
2. Use scissors to cut each sheet of tapioca paper into quarters. Then dip tapioca paper in water, about 5-6 seconds or per package directions. (Don’t over-soak as it will soften more when you wrap).
3. Take two quarters and slightly overlap them perpendicularly so the center is doubled up for extra support.
4. Add about 1½ tablespoons of filling to the center.
5. Gather the edges of the wrapper up and around the filling so they meet in the center. Gently press to seal into a tight dumpling.
6. Transfer the dumpling to a parchment-lined plate or tray and repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
7. Let the dumplings sit for 1-2 minutes before placing them in the air fryer. For extra crispiness, spray coconut oil on top of the dumplings.
8. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Spray the air fryer basket with coconut oil and arrange dumplings in a single layer. air fry for 10 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
9. While the dumplings are baking, heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add in 1 jar Get Saucy™ Tikka Masala and allow to get warm, about 3-5 minutes.
10. Spoon the warm Tikka Masala into a bowl and top with dumplings, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping. Finish with fresh cilantro.
