Ingredients
  

For the Broth
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil Adds rich, nutty flavor and aroma; essential for authentic taste.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Enhances overall flavor; consider using minced garlic for convenience.
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger Adds warming spice; fresh is best but pre-packed offers ease.
  • 2 tablespoons Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce Provides depth; substitute with tamari for a gluten-free option.
  • 6 cups Chicken Broth The soup base; swap with vegetable broth for a vegetarian version.
For the Wontons
  • 12 mini Frozen Wontons Convenient option for quick preparation; fresh wontons can be used, just adjust cooking time.
For the Veggies
  • 4 pieces Green Onions Brings mild onion flavor; use both white and green parts for brightness.
  • 1 cup Shredded Carrots Adds sweetness and a nice crunch; pre-shredded helps save time.
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach Offers nutrition and vibrant color; bok choy or snow peas work well as substitutes.
For Toppings
  • Chili Crisp Elevates the soup with a spicy kick; perfect for those who love heat.
  • Sesame Seeds Adds crunch and enhances presentation; sprinkle generously for extra texture.
