- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1–2 teaspoons chili paste
Instructions
- Step: Preheat air fryer to 380° Fahrenheit.
- Step: When air fryer is preheated, spray basket with spray oil then place frozen dumplings in basket in one flat layer, working in batches as needed stacking, piling, or overlapping dumplings.
- Step: Spray tops of dumplings with spray oil, then place basket in air fryer and air fry 8 minutes.
