Ingredients

  • Wonton wrappers - 20 pieces
  • Ground chicken - 200 grams
  • Carrot, finely chopped - 50 grams
  • Green onion, finely chopped - 30 grams
  • Garlic, minced - 1 clove
  • Ginger, minced - 1 teaspoon
  • Soy sauce (kosher) - 1 tablespoon
  • Sesame oil - 1 teaspoon
  • Chicken broth (kosher) - 4 cups
  • Salt - to taste
  • Pepper - to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish - 2 tablespoons

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, chopped carrot, green onion, minced garlic, minced ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Take a wonton wrapper and place a teaspoon of the filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper over to create a triangle, and then pinch the edges to seal. Optionally, bring the two corners of the triangle together and pinch to form a shape.
  3. Repeat the process until all the filling is used up.
  4. In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil over medium heat.
  5. Carefully add the wontons to the boiling broth. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the wontons float to the top and are cooked through.
  6. Taste the broth and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Serve the wontons in bowls, ladle the broth over them, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
