Suggestion for a Chinese Appetizer?

[esavvymom]

I am trying to figure out what to do for a simple appetizer (make-ahead or something I can pop in the oven while I prep the main meal) that would go with Chinese? This is for a dinner with friends- nothing show related, but she is wanting to host a show so I'm hoping to secure a date with her (she is hard to get ahold of due to schedule)- so if it's yummy and enticing to start a PC conversation, that's always a plus! Course, ANY dinner in my house always comes around to PC because you are essentially at a private cooking show! I have everything PC (even before a consultant).

I would like something that's delicious obviously- but also not too complicated. I'm doing a quick-stir fry for the dinner, so didn't want something with a million steps -or that I could prep ahead and then just pop in the oven later when ready.

Ideas??

What about the potstickers? I haven't actually made them but I've had several people tell me they are very good and they can't be too difficult because my in-laws made them and they are very minimalistic in the cooking department.

I"ve heard BeckyD and some others talking about the steamed wontons... I haven't made them, but they sound chinese...
