Course: Dinner
Servings: 6

Equipment

  • large soup pot or Dutch oven

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil, or neutral oil such as canola or vegetable oil
  • 1 cup shredded or julienned carrots
  • 6 scallions (green onions) thinly sliced, whites and greens separated 
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger 
  • 4 cloves minced (or pressed) fresh garlic 
  • 6 cups chicken broth or stock
  • 2 tablespoon white miso paste 
  • 1 lb frozen dumplings or potstickers
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce 
  • 3 cups fresh baby spinach or greens blend, such as Power Greens
  • the juice of one lime
  • Chili crisp, for serving (optional)
  • fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large soup pot or dutch oven over medium heat.
    2. Add carrots, scallion (whites only), ginger and garlic, and cook until slightly softened, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes.
    3. Add the chicken broth and miso paste, turn heat up to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook until miso is dissolved, stirring occasionally for 3-4 minutes.
    4. Once boiling and miso is dissolved, add the frozen dumplings and cook until heated through, 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don’t stick to the pot.
    5. Stir in sesame oil, soy sauce and baby spinach or greens, and half the scallion greens (reserve some for garnish). Cook until just greens or spinach is just wilted, about 1 minute.
    6. Turn off heat and stir in juice of 1 lime.
    Serve with scallion greens, cilantro leaves, and chili crisp, if desired.
