Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 frozen pork or chicken potstickers (thawed or frozen, no need to pre-cook)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (preferably low sodium to control saltiness)
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely grated
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (use low sodium if preferred)
  • 3 stalks green onions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
  • 2 cups baby spinach, packed, washed and dried
  • 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced (fresh or rehydrated if dried)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil for finishing
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Instructions

  • Start the broth: In a large pot, combine the chicken broth and water. Bring it to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
  • Add aromatics: Toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir and let simmer for 3 minutes to lightly infuse the broth.
  • Cook the potstickers: Carefully place frozen potstickers into the simmering broth. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring gently occasionally. They are done when floating to the surface.
  • Vegetables go in: Add sliced shiitake mushrooms and the white parts of green onions. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until mushrooms soften.
  • Final touches: Stir in 3 tablespoons soy sauce, add salt and pepper to taste. Add baby spinach last, stir to wilt, then turn off the heat.
  • Finish with sesame oil: Drizzle 1 teaspoon sesame oil over soup and sprinkle green parts of green onions on top.
  • Serve immediately: Ladle hot soup into bowls. Best enjoyed when potstickers are tender and broth is fresh.
