Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tsp garlic, minced
  • 1.5 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup thinly sliced carrots
  • 6 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 20 oz frozen potstickers (pork or chicken)
  • 4 cup baby spinach
  • 0.5 cup sliced green onions
  • 0.25 tsp ground white pepper
  • 0.25 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt to taste
  • 1 cup water use only if broth tastes too strong
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds for garnish
  • 1 tsp chili oil for serving, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Prep veggies and aromatics: slice mushrooms, carrots, and green onions; grate ginger and mince garlic.
  • Warm sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Sauté ginger and garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add mushrooms and carrots; cook until slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Pour in chicken broth, soy sauce, and rice vinegar; bring to a gentle boil.
  • Slide in frozen potstickers; simmer until they float and are heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Stir in spinach and green onions; cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
  • Season with white pepper, red pepper, and a pinch of salt. Thin with water if desired.
  • Ladle into bowls. Finish with sesame seeds and a drizzle of chili oil.

Notes

Variation: Swap spinach for chopped bok choy or napa cabbage. For extra richness, whisk in a beaten egg while the soup simmers for silky ribbons. Leftovers keep 2 days refrigerated; reheat gently and add a splash of water if the broth concentrates.
