Low-Carb Asian Pork Patties | Grilled Pork Dumpling Inspired Recipe

Why These Asian Style Pork Patties Work

These Asian style pork patties are packed with the same savory flavor that makes pork dumplings so hard to resist, but in an easy grilled burger-style form. They’re made with ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, liquid aminos, and a little garlic chili sauce for a balanced mix of salty, savory, and just enough kick.

This recipe is a great option when you want all the flavor of dumpling filling without dealing with wrappers. The patties cook up beautifully on the grill, and brushing them with G. Hughes sugar free stir fry sauce adds another layer of flavor without overpowering the pork. Finished with sesame seeds and sliced green onion tops, these are simple, family-friendly, and low-carb friendly too.

Ingredients:

• 4 1/2 pounds ground pork
• 1 bunch green onions, sliced
• 1 head garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon minced ginger
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Redmond Real Salt
• 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon liquid aminos
• 1 tablespoon Huy Fong Chili Garlic Sauce
• G. Hughes sugar free teriyaki sauce, for brushing or glazing
• Sesame seeds, for garnish
• Thin sliced green onion tops, for garnish

Instructions:

Add the ground pork to a large mixing bowl. Slice the green onions and mince the garlic, then add them to the bowl along with the minced ginger, garlic powder, onion powder, white pepper, black pepper, salt, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, liquid aminos, and garlic chili sauce.

Mix everything together until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the pork. Once combined, form the mixture into patties. Don’t forget to press a small dimple into the center of each patty before grilling. That little step helps keep them from puffing up into meatballs on the grill.

Grill the pork patties until cooked through and nicely browned on the outside. I pull them off when they hit an internal temperature of 155 degrees. During the cook, brush them with G. Hughes sugar free stir fry sauce to add flavor without overwhelming the taste of the pork.

Once done, remove the patties from the grill and top with sesame seeds and thin sliced green onion tops before serving.

Tips:

• The dimple in the middle of each patty helps them cook flatter on the grill.
• Mix just until combined so the patties stay tender.
• Brush the sauce on during the end of the cook so it adds flavor without burning.
• These patties bring all the flavor of pork dumpling filling without the wrappers.
• Top with sesame seeds and fresh green onion for extra texture and color.

A Low-Carb Way to Get Dumpling Flavor

One of my favorite things about this recipe is that it pulls inspiration from classic pork dumpling filling without needing the wrappers. That means you still get the garlic, ginger, green onion, sesame, and chili flavor combo, but in a form that works great for the grill and fits a lower-carb lifestyle a whole lot better.

These are also kid-approved in my house, which is always a win. If your family already loves Asian-inspired flavors, these pork patties are an easy one to add into the rotation.
