Instructions
Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics
Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 2: Build the Broth
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth.
Stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili flakes (if using).
Bring the soup to a gentle boil.
Step 3: Cook the Mushrooms and Potstickers
Add the sliced mushrooms to the broth and simmer for 5 minutes.
Carefully drop the frozen potstickers into the soup. Simmer for 6–8 minutes, or until the potstickers are cooked through (check the package instructions for exact cooking time).
Step 4: Add the Bok Choy
Stir in the chopped bok choy and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, just until the leaves are tender but still vibrant.
Step 5: Serve and Garnish
Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each serving gets plenty of broth, dumplings, mushrooms, and bok choy.
Garnish with sliced green onions, fresh cilantro, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sriracha or chili oil for extra heat.
