If you love the taste of crispy egg rolls from your favorite takeout spot, you are going to adore this soup. It has all the savory notes of ginger and sesame, plus plenty of tender cabbage and hearty meat to keep you full.

I love making this on busy weeknights because it comes together so quickly. Feel free to swap the protein for whatever you have on hand, as ground turkey, pork, or chicken all work wonderfully here.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground pork, chicken, or turkey
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 medium head green cabbage, shredded
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • Crispy wonton strips for topping
  • Chili oil for drizzling

Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown your choice of ground meat in a large pot over medium heat until it is fully cooked through.

  2. 2

    Stir in the sesame oil, minced garlic, and fresh ginger, cooking for about one minute until it smells fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add the shredded cabbage to the pot and cook until it begins to soften, which usually takes about five minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and rice vinegar, then bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

  5. 5

    Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about ten minutes so all those great flavors can blend together.

  6. 6

    Serve hot in bowls topped with a generous handful of crispy wonton strips and a drizzle of chili oil.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Keep the wonton strips separate until you are ready to eat so they stay nice and crunchy. You can also add chopped green onions or a squeeze of lime juice right before serving for an extra pop of flavor.
