Assemble the potstickers: Lay a wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the pork filling in the center of the wrapper. Dip your finger in a small bowl of water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half to form a half-moon shape, pressing out any air and sealing the edges tightly. You can crimp the edges with a fork or create pleats for a decorative finish. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.

Cook the potstickers: Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place a single layer of potstickers in the skillet, ensuring they don't overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy.

Steam the potstickers: Carefully pour 1/2 cup of water into the skillet. Immediately cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the potstickers steam for 5-7 minutes, or until the water has evaporated and the pork filling is cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F).

Serve: Remove the potstickers from the skillet and arrange them on a serving platter. Garnish the dipping sauce with sliced green onions, if desired. Serve the potstickers hot with the dipping sauce on the side.
