Instructions

Prepare the sauce mixture: In a glass casserole dish, combine the coconut milk, soyaki sauce, Thai red curry sauce, and minced garlic. Stir well until all the ingredients are evenly mixed to create a flavorful base for the bake.
Add spinach and potstickers: Layer two handfuls of baby spinach evenly over the sauce mixture. Then, arrange the frozen gyoza potstickers on top of the spinach in a single layer to ensure they cook evenly.
Cover and bake: Cover the casserole dish tightly with aluminum foil to trap steam and bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 35 minutes. This allows the potstickers to cook through and the flavors to meld.
Finish baking uncovered: Remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes at the same temperature. This step crisps the potstickers’ edges and thickens the sauce slightly.
Add garnish and serve: Remove the bake from the oven and sprinkle chopped green onions and Trader Joe’s Chili Onion Crunch over the top. Serve hot for a delicious, spicy, and crunchy finish.

Notes

Ensure the potstickers are arranged in a single layer to cook evenly and get crispy edges.
Covering the dish tightly during initial baking steams the potstickers to cook through fully.
You can substitute pork or chicken potstickers depending on preference or diet.
For extra heat, add more Chili Onion Crunch or serve with a side of chili sauce.
Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best texture.
