Ingredients:
6 cups chicken broth (low sodium preferred)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
20–25 store-bought or homemade wontons
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup bok choy, chopped
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
1/4 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Salt and pepper to taste
How to Make Easy Wonton Soup:
1. Make the Flavorful Broth
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Let it simmer for a few minutes to enhance the flavor.
2. Cook the Wontons
Carefully add the wontons to the broth. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until the wontons rise to the top, which means they’re fully cooked and ready to eat.
3. Add Fresh Veggies
Toss in the chopped bok choy and mushrooms (if using). Let everything simmer for another 2–3 minutes, just until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
4. Season to Taste
Taste your soup and add salt and pepper as needed to balance the flavors.
5. Serve and Garnish
Ladle the hot wonton soup into bowls, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and enjoy this healthy Asian soup right away!
Recipe Tips:
Use frozen or homemade wontons for convenience.
Add chili oil or a splash of rice vinegar for extra flavor.
Swap bok choy for spinach if desired.
