🔪 Instructions:

1. Make the Broth:

   • In a pot, heat a bit of oil.

   • Sauté garlic and ginger for 1 minute until fragrant.

   • Add chicken broth, water, soy sauce, and sesame oil.

   • Simmer for 5–10 minutes to infuse flavor.

2. Cook the Wontons:

   • If using frozen wontons: Add them directly to the simmering broth and cook for 4–6 minutes, or until they float and are fully cooked.

   • If boiling separately: Boil in another pot for 4–6 minutes, then transfer to bowls before ladling soup over.

3. Add Veggies (Optional):

   • Add chopped bok choy, spinach, or mushrooms in the last 2–3 minutes of simmering.

4. Serve:

   • Ladle soup and wontons into bowls.

   • Garnish with green onions, chili oil, or a squeeze of lime.

📝 Notes:

• Wontons: You can use frozen from the store, or I can give you a homemade wonton filling recipe if you’re feeling ambitious.

• Broth flavor: Taste and adjust soy sauce, salt, or add a splash of rice vinegar for more depth.
