Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1215 frozen potstickers (store-bought or homemade)
  • 4 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth for vegetarian option
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 23 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Optional Vegetables and Seasonings

  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup spinach or bok choy
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp chili oil or red pepper flakes (for spice)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Broth: Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant to release their flavors into the oil.
  2. Add Broth and Simmer: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle simmer on medium heat, setting the foundation for a rich and savory soup.
  3. Add Potstickers: Carefully add the frozen potstickers into the simmering broth. Cook them according to the package instructions, usually 5-7 minutes, until they are tender and cooked through.
  4. Incorporate Vegetables: If using mushrooms, spinach, or bok choy, add these to the pot during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking so they remain tender but retain their freshness and nutrients.
  5. Season the Soup: Stir in soy sauce and rice vinegar if using. Add salt and pepper to taste, and adjust seasoning by tasting the broth to get the perfect balance of flavors.
  6. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with the chopped green onions. For an extra kick, drizzle chili oil or sprinkle red pepper flakes on top as desired.

Notes

  • Use vegetable broth to make this soup vegetarian or vegan, and ensure potstickers are vegetarian if needed.
  • Adjust chili oil or red pepper flakes to control the spice level.
  • Fresh vegetables can be substituted or added according to preference, such as baby corn or snap peas.
  • For a gluten-free option, seek gluten-free soy sauce and potstickers.
  • Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated gently on the stove.
