Step 1

In a large stock pot, combine chicken stock, ginger, garlic cloves, soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil and green onions.

Step 2

Place lid on the pot and bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Let cook for 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

While the broth simmers, cook your wontons. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the wontons to the pot in batches, about 12 wontons at a time.

Step 4

Boil for 3 to 4 minutes, until the dumplings float to the top and are slightly translucent. Remove with slotted spoon and place straight into serving bowls.

Step 5

Strain out the chunky garlic and ginger from the broth and discard both.

Step 6

If using any optional vegetables (like baby bok choy), blanch in the soup broth and place in serving bowl.

Step 7

Ladle hot broth over the wontons. Let stand for 2-3 and garnish with green onions. Serve immediately.
