Description
This cozy Potsticker Soup is packed with tender dumplings simmered in a flavorful broth with garlic, ginger, veggies, and a drizzle of sesame oil. It’s warm, comforting, and ready in minutes — the perfect busy-night bowl of deliciousness.
Ingredients
20 beef or chicken dumplings (frozen or homemade)
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 cup sliced carrots
1 cup peas or mixed vegetables
1–2 teaspoons sesame oil
3 green onions, sliced
Salt and soy sauce, to taste
Optional: chili flakes, cilantro, white pepper
Instructions
Add the chicken broth to a large pot and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the chopped garlic and ginger to infuse the broth with flavor.
Add the frozen dumplings directly into the simmering broth and cook according to package instructions (usually 6–8 minutes).
Add the vegetables and let them soften until tender but still slightly crisp.
Drizzle in sesame oil and season with salt, soy sauce, or chili flakes if desired.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh green onions and cilantro.
Serve warm and enjoy a cozy, comforting bowl of homemade goodness.
Notes
Use any dumplings you love — chicken, pork, veggie, or beef.
Add spinach or bok choy for extra greens.
For a spicy twist, finish with chili oil or sriracha.
If reheating, add a splash of broth to loosen the soup, as dumplings absorb liquid over time.
