How this Chicken Wonton Soup was Created?

We know that college students and even grad students don’t have time to make fancy meals.  So when I needed to show my daughter how to make a simple and super easy chicken soup in a matter of minutes, this idea for chicken wonton soup came to me!

We all know that winter is soup season, and soup is really our one essential “go-to” for a quick meal, especially during chilly nights.

My family loves to come home to the smell of something cooking in the kitchen and when they realize it’s soup – they’re even happier.

Making this chicken wonton soup was a breeze!

As soon as I got home, I pulled open a carton of organic broth, threw it into a soup pot. Then added some veggies to it, and let it simmer for a while while I checked on my daily mail, and settled in.

How to Make Easy Chicken Wonton Soup?

1. First, I made it using my staple ingredients as the base for all my soups- celery, carrot, onion, garlic, and olive oil, only this time I simmered these ingredients with chicken broth for a few minutes until they soften.

2. Then at the very last minute, I dropped in frozen mini wontons and simmered for additional few minutes, until they were tender. And the soup was ready.

 

Great Tips and Options…

  • These days, I prefer to keep packages of frozen mini wontons on hand lately. ย I found them in the freezer section at Trader Joe’s.
  • These mini wontons come in a variety of packages filled with cabbage, chicken, and mixed veggies.
  • Plus, they’re not expensive at all, they cost around $4.00 per bag.
  • Mini wontons are convenient to pull out when you need a quick appetizer before dinner, or just when you need to drop them into a pot of soup as I did here.
  • Serve with our Chicken Cauliflower Rice Stir-Fry as the main course, and enjoy a fabulous dinner!

Other Options To Making Chicken Wonton Soup

  • add in some baby Bok Choy
  • toss in a few sliced mushrooms
  • garnish with some chives or chopped green onions
  • drizzle with a little sesame oil
  • serve with chili garlic sauce, if desired.

Now, to end the story I started, when my daughter came home, she quickly picked up a tub of this soup and said she was in a hurry while she was running out the door.

And even though I showed her how to make this Chicken Wonton Soup, let’s just say, this was one of those soups I hope she’ll attempt to make it on her own.  …I’m being optimistic  ๐Ÿ™‚

  1. Yum – I bet that is a great dinner. We don't have Trader Joe's but I'll look around and see if I can find these mini's. You are a good mom – now she can find the recipe anytime she needs it!

    1. Oh Tricia thank you ! I try to show them the way, and pray it will pay off. I hope you will find these mini wontons they are fantastic. I even made them in a skillet with some garlic and soy sauce and served them with some sweet chili dipping sauce. Everyone loved them.
