Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Chicken breast
- 150 grams Raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 4 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon White pepper
- 1 large Egg white
- 6 cups Chicken broth
- 2 pieces Baby bok choy, halved
- 1 medium Carrots, julienned
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 bowl (for sealing wontons) Water
Instructions
Chop the chicken breast and shrimp into fine pieces, or pulse them together in a food processor until they form a coarse paste.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken and shrimp with green onions, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, and egg white. Mix well to form the filling.
Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Add a teaspoon of the filling to the center. Dip your finger in water and wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal. Bring the two bottom corners together and press to seal in a 'boat' shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle boil. Add the carrots and baby bok choy. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Gently add the wontons to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they float to the surface and the filling is fully cooked.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, if needed.
Ladle the soup and wontons into bowls and serve hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions if desired.
