Ingredients
- 1/4 pound ground chicken
- 1/4 pound ground turkey
- 2 water chestnuts, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon egg white
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 12 wonton wrappers
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup cooked pork, shredded
- 1 green onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded carrot
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Wonton Filling: In a small bowl, mix together the ground chicken, ground turkey, finely chopped water chestnuts, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, egg white, and minced ginger until well combined. This will create a flavorful filling for your wontons.
-
Assemble the Wontons: Lay out a wonton wrapper with one point facing you. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling at the bottom of the wrapper. Fold the bottom point over the filling, then roll the wrapper upwards. Moisten the side points with a bit of water and bring them together to overlap slightly, pinching to seal the wonton tightly. Continue this process until all wonton wrappers and filling are used. Keep the finished wontons covered with plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.
-
Cook the Wontons: In a large saucepan, combine the chicken broth and the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium. Add the wontons to the broth, allowing them to simmer uncovered for about 4 minutes, or until they are cooked through and float to the surface.
-
Add Vegetables and Meat: Stir in the fresh spinach leaves, shredded cooked pork, and chopped green onion. Allow the soup to cook for an additional minute, just until the spinach is wilted and the pork is heated through.
-
Finish and Serve: Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sesame oil if using. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with shredded carrot for a touch of color and crunch.
