Directions:

Instructions

  1. Make the broth:Heat the olive oil in a small soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and sauté for 5–6 minutes, until the onions soften and lightly caramelize.

  2. Pour in 1 cup of the chicken bone broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the remaining 7 cups broth, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.

  3. Bring the soup to a light boil, then reduce heat. Cover partially and simmer for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding the solids. Return the strained broth to the pot over medium-high heat.

  4. Make the filling: In a bowl, combine all the filling ingredients and mix well. Let rest for 5–10 minutes.

  5. Carefully drop teaspoon-sized balls of the filling into the simmering broth. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, until cooked through.

  6. Stir in the bok choy and simmer for 2–3 minutes, just until tender.

  7. Add the wonton wrapper pieces one at a time, stirring gently so they don’t stick. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes.

  8. Serve:
    Ladle the broth and wontons into bowls. Garnish with sliced green onions and chili oil. Serve immediately.
