Ingredients
- 12 pieces wonton wrappers (low-fat)
- 200 grams lean ground chicken or turkey
- 200 grams fresh egg noodles (low-fat or whole wheat)
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon garlic (minced)
- 2 stalks scallions (chopped)
- 2 cups bok choy (chopped)
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock (low-fat, low-sodium)
- 0.5 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the lean ground chicken or turkey, grated ginger, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce, and the sesame oil. Mix thoroughly to incorporate all the ingredients.
Step 2
Place one wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the meat mixture into the center of the wrapper. Lightly wet the edges of the wrapper with water, then fold it in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal.
Step 3
Bring the two outer points of the triangle together and pinch to make the classic wonton shape. Repeat this process with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
Step 4
In a large pot, bring the chicken or vegetable stock to a gentle boil. Add the bok choy and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender. Remove the bok choy and set aside.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to a simmer and gently add the prepared wontons to the stock. Let them cook for 5-6 minutes or until the meat is fully cooked and the wontons float to the surface.
Step 6
In a separate pot, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and divide the noodles evenly into four serving bowls.
Step 7
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water to form a slurry. Add this mixture to the broth with the wontons to slightly thicken the soup.
Step 8
Add the cooked wontons and stock to the bowls with the noodles. Top each bowl with reserved bok choy, chopped scallions, and a sprinkle of white pepper.
Step 9
Serve warm with an extra drizzle of low-sodium soy sauce if desired. Enjoy your light and satisfying low-fat wonton noodles!
