A super easy, light and comforting wonton soup that you can make right at home – and it tastes 1000x better than ordering out!
Whenever we’re ordering take-out, wonton soup is always a must. Always, always, always. See, I have a major thing for wontons. And soup.
But little did I know that the homemade version is unbelievably easy. And fool-proof. The only thing that takes a little bit of time is wrapping up the wontons. But that’s when the kitchen helpers come in, like your fiance who can never wrap them perfectly but still, an extra set of hands is always helpful.
Once your wontons are done, you’re all set! But if you know you’ll have leftovers, it’s best to keep the wontons uncooked and separate until right before serving. Or if you’re anything like me, you’ll throw it all in at once and eat every last one of these by yourself!

Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine shrimp, garlic, green onions, oyster sauce, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, Sriracha and pepper.*
2. To assemble the wontons, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the shrimp mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal; set aside.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
4. Whisk in chicken broth, mushrooms and 2 cups water.
5. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in bok choy and green onions. Stir in miso paste until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.
6. Stir in wontons until cooked through, about 2 minutes.
7. Serve immediately.
