Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Ground lean turkey
- 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 medium, chopped Green onions
- 1 teaspoon Grated ginger
- 20 Wonton wrappers
- 4 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 small, chopped Bok choy
- 1 large, julienned Carrot
- 1 minced Garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Cilantro
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine ground lean turkey, 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce, chopped green onions, grated ginger, and a pinch of black pepper.
Place about 1 teaspoon of the turkey mixture into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges with water and fold to seal, ensuring there are no air pockets. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth to a simmer over medium heat.
Add minced garlic and sesame oil to the simmering broth.
Carefully add the prepared wontons to the broth, ensuring they don’t stick together. Let them cook for about 5-6 minutes or until the wontons float and the turkey is cooked through.
Add chopped bok choy and julienned carrot to the soup and simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve hot and enjoy your heart-healthy wonton soup!
