Dice chicken breast finely (Picture 2) and combine all ingredients of Ingredient 4) to 6) in the a bowl (Picture 3) and stir in one direction for 3 minutes with a pair of chopsticks or a wooden spoon until the mixture is sticky (Picture 3).
3. Gently knead dough a few times then divide into 2 equal portions. Shape each into a 2-cm diameter log and cut into 8 discs. Press down each disc and roll out into a 10 cm wrapper. Place 2 tbsp filling in the middle of a wrapper. Fold up along the edge to form pleats and pinch together to form a bun (See the video). Repeat to finish the rest of dough and filling.
4: Place 8 buns inside a non-stick sauté pan which is already coated with 1 tbsp oil, cover with a lid. Other buns on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap. Let buns rest for 30-60minutes in a warm place until volume increases by 50%.
5: Add about 3/4 cup of cold water to the pan. Cover the lid (Picture 5) and bring to a boil over high heat. Keep an eye and when water almost evaporates (about 4 minutes), reduce to medium-low heat (3) and cook for another 2 minutes. Then reduce to low heat and cook for 2 minutes.
6. Remove from heat, wait for 2 minutes and open the lid. Scatter evenly 1 tbsp roasted sesame seeds and 2 tsp chopped green onion. Transfer to a serving plate and serve warm. Yummy!!.
