Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 6 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1.5 tbsp soy sauce low-sodium if preferred
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1.5 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 0.75 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1.5 cup chopped baby bok choy
  • 12 oz frozen mini dumplings chicken or vegetable
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 0.5 cup sliced green onions
  • 0.25 tsp white pepper
  • 0.25 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Bring the broth to a simmer in a medium pot. Stir in soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic.
  • Add mushrooms and carrots. Simmer until slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Slide in the frozen dumplings. Gently simmer until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Stir in bok choy and white pepper. Cook 2 minutes until greens are tender-crisp.
  • Finish with sesame oil and most green onions. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Ladle into bowls. Top with remaining green onions, cilantro, and red pepper flakes if using.

Notes

Variation: Add a beaten egg in a slow stream while stirring for an egg-drop swirl. For extra depth, swap 1 cup broth with unsalted dashi.
Storage: Refrigerate soup and dumplings separately if possible; reheat broth to a simmer and add dumplings just until warmed.
