Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion, and grated ginger. Mix well to create the wonton filling.
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the filling onto the center of the wrapper. Lightly moisten the edges with water and fold the wrapper into a triangle, pressing to seal. Bring the corners together and pinch to close, forming a traditional wonton shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce, salt, and white pepper for seasoning.
Gently drop the prepared wontons into the boiling broth and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
Add the thinly sliced chicken breast, whole shrimp, carrots, bok choy, snow peas, and water chestnuts to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Gradually stir this into the soup to slightly thicken the broth.
Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or soy sauce to taste.
Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each serving has a mix of wontons, proteins, vegetables, and broth. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Wor Won Ton Soup!
