Chicken Wonton Soup
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 tsp finely grated ginger
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced, plus some for garnish
- 2 tsp tamari soy sauce
- 1½ tsp toasted sesame oil
- ½ tsp salt
- Ground pepper
- 30 square wonton wrappers
For The Soup:
- 8 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade
- 1 bunch spinach
- Chili oil, optional
- Scallions, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, as garnish
Directions:
- Combine the chicken, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and pepper in a bowl.
- To form your wontons, place a few of your wontons on a work surface. Fill a little bowl with water and set aside. Place a heaped teaspoon of the filling into the center of each wrapper. Using a dampened finger, rub around the edges of the wonton. Fold the dough diagonally over and pinch the edges together to form a wide triangle. Bring the two lower corners in towards each other and pinch to seal.
- Heat your stock in a stock pot.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently drop your wontons into the boiling water and cook for 3 minutes. (You can also just add to stock, but I like to do separately.)
- Add wontons and spinach to the stock. Allow to heat through for one minute. Taste broth and season.
- Serve to taste, a little soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, leftover scallions, and chili oil, if desired.
Caitlin's Notes:
To Freeze: Dust with cornstarch and freeze on a sheet pan. Once frozen, transfer to a container of choice.
