Homemade Wonton Soup





So the hubs and I have been trying different Chinese restaurants here is sac, and let me tell you how disappointed we are in the selection! I finally said forget this I'm making it myself, so we went down the list of favorite Chinese dishes we enjoy and agreed that Wonton Soup should start this journey! :) SO here it is ....

Ingredients:
1 Package Wonton Wrappers
8 cups Chicken Stock
2 tsp Sesame Oil
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1 Bunch Bok Choy
2 Stalks Green Onions, thinly sliced
Sea salt to taste
Pepper

Filling:
8 oz. Ground Chicken/Pork
6 oz. Peeled Shrimp, finely chopped
1 tsp Minced Ginger (fresh)
1 Tbsp AP Flour
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1/4 tsp Pepper
3/4 tsp Sea Salt



Instructions:


-Combine the wonton filling ingredients and mix well.
-Place about 1-1 1/2 tsp of filling in the center of the wrapper.Seal the edges of the wrapper with water and wrap the wonton. (like a big ravioli)
-Blanch the veggies in a saucepan with boiling water and 1/2 tsp of salt. Cook for about a minute, drain and set aside.
-Bring a saucepan of water to a boil with a few drizzles of cooking oil. Cook the wontons for about four minutes. Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and divide the portions into each bowl.
-Bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, and sea salt to taste.
-Ladle the chicken stock into the bowls of wontons. Top with veggies, chopped scallions, some pepper, and sirracha (hot sauce).
