Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 3 green onions, sliced

Instructions

1. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.

6. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.

7. Serve hot, garnishing with fresh cilantro.

Notes

This soup can be made vegetarian by using vegetable broth and vegetable potstickers.

Add more chili garlic sauce for an extra kick of spice.

Substitute baby bok choy for spinach for a slightly different green addition.

Experiment with different types of mushrooms for unique flavors and textures.
