Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package frozen potstickers
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (shiitake or button mushrooms work well)
- 2 cups bok choy, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
- 2 green onions, sliced (reserve some for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Optional: sesame oil or chili oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the aromatics: In a large pot, heat a teaspoon of oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.
- Cook the vegetables: Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 2–3 minutes until slightly softened. Add the chopped bok choy and cook for another 1–2 minutes until it starts to wilt.
- Add broth and seasoning: Pour in the 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth. Stir in the soy sauce and bring the soup to a gentle boil.
- Cook the potstickers: Add the frozen potstickers to the boiling soup. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook according to the package instructions (usually 5–7 minutes), until the potstickers float and are fully cooked.
- Finish and serve: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with more soy sauce if needed. Ladle into bowls, garnish with reserved green onions. Optional: drizzle with a few drops of sesame oil or chili oil for extra flavor.
Notes
- You can add other vegetables like spinach, carrots, or snow peas for more color and nutrition.
- For a heartier soup, add cooked noodles along with the broth.
- Use homemade broth for a richer flavor.
