Instructions

  1. Wash and dry produce. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince ginger.
  2. Heat sesame oil and a drizzle of cooking oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and ginger; cook, stirring, until scallion whites begin to brown, 30-60 seconds. Add garlic powder and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 10-15 seconds. Stir in 5 cups water (8 cups for 8 servings), soy sauce, ramen stock concentrates, veggie stock concentrates and 1 teaspoon sugar (2 teaspoons for 8 servings). Bring to a boil. Cover the pot to help broth boil faster.
  3. Once broth is boiling, carefully add carrots, peas, cabbage and gyoza (reserve gyoza sauce for serving); stir to combine. Return to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender and gyoza are cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  4. Serve soup family style or divide between bowls; garnish with scallion greens and gyoza sauce to taste (or serve on the side).

Recipe Tips

For a quicker boil, cover the pot while bringing the broth to a boil.

Adjust the amount of gyoza sauce to your taste-it adds a tangy kick.

Feel free to swap in your favorite vegetables or add a soft-boiled egg for extra protein.

FAQ

Can I use frozen gyoza instead of fresh?

Yes, frozen gyoza work well. Just add them directly to the boiling broth and cook until they are heated through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

How can I make this soup vegetarian?

Substitute the chicken gyoza with vegetable or tofu gyoza and use vegetable stock concentrate instead of pork ramen stock concentrate. The rest of the ingredients are already vegetarian-friendly.

Can I prepare this soup ahead of time?

The broth and vegetables can be made a day ahead and refrigerated. When ready to serve, reheat the broth, add the gyoza and cook until done. Garnish fresh for best results.
