Equipment

  • 1 large pot or Dutch oven

Ingredients
  

  • 12 pieces frozen potstickers Store-bought or homemade.
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced Shiitake or button mushrooms work well.
  • 2 cups bok choy, chopped
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 green onions, sliced for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat the sesame oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pot, stirring for another minute until fragrant.
  • Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle simmer.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and soy sauce, and continue to simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Carefully add the frozen potstickers to the pot. Allow them to cook according to the package instructions, usually around 6-8 minutes, until they are heated through and floating.
  • In the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, stir in the chopped bok choy and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook until the bok choy is just wilted.
  • Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed. Remove from heat.
  • Serve the soup hot using a ladle, garnished with sliced green onions and a drizzle of chili oil if desired.

Notes

You can customize the soup by adding other vegetables such as carrots or snap peas.
For a vegetarian option, ensure the potstickers are vegetable-based and use vegetable broth.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove before serving.
