Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Ground chicken or turkey
- 2 stalks Green onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tsp Low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.5 tsp Ground ginger
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 20 sheets Wonton wrappers
- 6 cups Chicken broth (low-sodium)
- 2 cups Bok choy, chopped
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned or thinly sliced
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken or turkey, green onion, garlic, soy sauce, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the meat mixture in the center of the wrapper.
Using your finger or a brush, wet the edges of the wonton wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper into a triangle, pressing the edges to seal. Optionally, bring the two bottom corners together and pinch to make a 'purse' shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the prepared wontons to the boiling broth gently, ensuring they do not stick together. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 5–7 minutes, or until the wontons are cooked through and float to the surface.
Add the chopped bok choy and carrots to the soup and simmer for an additional 2–3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the sesame oil for added flavor.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy your WW-friendly wonton soup!
