Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups chicken broth regular or low sodium
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce regular or low sodium
  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar regular white vinegar can be substituted
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger minced
  • 2 cups frozen wontons pork, chicken, shrimp, or vegetable filled
  • 1.5 cups frozen peas
  • 2 cups baby spinach packed
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • cashews roughly chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Medium-large pot
  • Ladle
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Add chicken broth to a medium-large pot over high heat. Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sweet chili sauce, and minced ginger. Stir and bring to a full boil.
  2. Once boiling, add frozen wontons, frozen peas, and baby spinach. Cook over high heat for exactly 3 minutes until wontons are tender and floating. Do not overcook.
  3. Remove from heat immediately. Stir in fresh cilantro or sprinkle over individual bowls.
  4. Ladle into bowls and top each with roughly chopped cashews right before serving. Serve hot.

Notes

Do not freeze leftovers. Store in the fridge up to 4 days. Keep cashews separate until serving. Reheat gently on the stovetop without boiling to preserve wonton texture.
