Ingredients

For the Dumplings

1 pack Wonton wrappers Perfectly thin and delicate, these are key for holding the delicious filling.
8 oz Ground pork or shrimp Provides a rich, savory flavor; chicken or tofu makes a lighter alternative.

For the Broth

4 cups Chicken broth A savory base that adds depth; vegetable broth keeps it vegetarian.
2 cloves Garlic Fresh minced garlic enhances aroma and flavor.
1 tablespoon Ginger Add warmth and spice; adjust the amount for a milder flavor if desired.
2 tablespoons Soy sauce Brings a rich umami flavor; try tamari for a gluten-free option.
1 teaspoon Sesame oil A splash at the end adds a nutty finish; olive oil can be a substitute in a pinch.

For the Garnish

2 stalks Green onions Sprinkle on top for a fresh crunch; use chives if you want an alternative.

Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large pot, combine 4 cups of chicken broth with 1 tablespoon of grated ginger and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Bring this mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
Once your broth is boiling, gently drop in the wontons, ensuring they float freely. Allow them to cook for about 4-5 minutes until they rise to the surface.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, adjusting the seasoning according to your taste. Simmer for another minute to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
Slice up 2 green onions and sprinkle them over the soup for a fresh touch. Stir gently to combine the garnish.
Ladle generous portions of your warm broth and wontons into bowls. Serve immediately.
