Ingredients

• 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
• 0.5 pounds Ground pork
• 0.25 pounds Shrimp, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Green onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 0.5 pounds Chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 0.25 pounds Shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 cups Bok choy, chopped
• 1 cup Carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Snow peas, trimmed
• 0.5 cup Water chestnuts, sliced
• 8 cups Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce for broth
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion, and grated ginger. Mix well to create the wonton filling.

Step 2

Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the filling onto the center of the wrapper. Lightly moisten the edges with water and fold the wrapper into a triangle, pressing to seal. Bring the corners together and pinch to close, forming a traditional wonton shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 3

In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce, salt, and white pepper for seasoning.

Step 4

Gently drop the prepared wontons into the boiling broth and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.

Step 5

Add the thinly sliced chicken breast, whole shrimp, carrots, bok choy, snow peas, and water chestnuts to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Gradually stir this into the soup to slightly thicken the broth.

Step 7

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or soy sauce to taste.

Step 8

Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each serving has a mix of wontons, proteins, vegetables, and broth. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Wor Won Ton Soup!
