  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 12 – 15 Frozen Potstickers
  • 4 cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 cups Bok Choy or Spinach, chopped
  • 2 Green Onions, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Toasted Sesame Oil
  • Sriracha or Chili Flakes (Optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Broth: In a large pot, bring chicken or vegetable broth to a gentle boil. Add grated ginger and minced garlic, allowing these ingredients to infuse their fragrant flavors into the broth for about five minutes.
  2. Cook the Potstickers: Add frozen potstickers directly into the simmering broth. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Let them cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until they float to the surface and are heated through.
  3. Add Vegetables and Seasonings: Stir in chopped bok choy or spinach and sliced green onions. Season the broth with soy sauce and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil. If you like it spicy, add sriracha or red pepper flakes now.
  4. Final Simmer: Let the soup simmer for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the greens are tender but still vibrant. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Notes

  • Use frozen potstickers to save time and get great texture and flavor.
  • Don’t rush the aromatics; allow garlic and ginger to steep for full-bodied flavor.
  • Add greens last to keep vegetables bright and avoid mushiness.
  • Toast sesame oil at the end to dramatically enhance aroma.
  • Customize the spice level by adding chili sauce gradually and tasting as you go.
  • Store leftover soup in an airtight container with potstickers submerged in broth to retain texture and flavor.
  • Freeze soup without fresh greens; add greens fresh when reheating.
