CHICKEN & SHRIMP WONTON SOUP



Chicken & Shrimp Wonton Soup image

This is delicious! I am not an experienced cook by any means, but this was easy! I initially got the idea from a soup recipe, but changed the wonton ingredients to suit and added to the soup. Great meal and feeds 4-6 people ... the only thing I had to go out and buy was the wonton wrappers and spring onion! It is surprisingly filling! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

32 wonton wrappers
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
2 teaspoons crushed ginger
1 teaspoon sesame oil
3 teaspoons soy sauce
150 g ground chicken
32 shrimp
2 spring onions, finely chopped
5 cups water
6 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon granules
1 spring onion
1 onion, sliced
2 carrots
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, adjust to taste
1 spring onion, very finely sliced to garnish

Steps:

  • Very finely slice the spring onion into long strips (about 6 cms long) and place in a bowl of ice cold water so they curl.
  • Combine all the soup ingredients and simmer while you finish the wontons.
  • Mix all the wonton filling ingredients together and place a teaspoon of filling in each wonton paper, along with one shrimp.
  • Wet the edges of the wontons and fold upwards so it makes a little parcel.
  • Place the completed wontons onto a large plate dusted with flour so they don't stick together.
  • Complete all wonton's before starting to cook them.
  • Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
  • When the water is rapidly boiling, place 6-8 of the wonton's in at a time to cook for about 5 minutes.
  • Drain and place the cooked wonton's into a bowl that you will serve the soup in (around 8 wontons each).
  • Take the spring onion garnish out of the water and place a bit on top of the wonton's.
  • Pour some of the soup over the top of the wonton's and serve.

CHICKEN WONTON SOUP WITH SHRIMP



Chicken Wonton Soup With Shrimp image

This is a more luxurious version of an old standby which is almost a meal in itself. From "Chinese, the essence of Asian cooking". The wontons can be a little fussy to make so you might want to consider doing them the day before. (If that's the case, stop at the end of step two.) The preparation time is mostly for the wontons which are really worth the effort. The cooking time is for the soup. Leftovers, if there are any, seem to survive well in the fridge and are easily heated in the nuke for an additional treat.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 large breast half or 1 small whole breast)
7 ounces large shrimp, cooked or raw (I chose to use smaller shrimp as 3/4 of them get processed anyway)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 egg
2 teaspoons oyster sauce (optional)
1 (16 ounce) packet wonton wrappers
1 tablespoon cornstarch paste (water and cornstarch)
3 3/4 cups chicken broth (or two 15 oz. cans commercial product)
1/4 cup cucumber, peeled and diced
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 scallion, cut into thin strips, for garnish
4 sprigs fresh cilantro, for garnish
1 tomatoes, scalded, peeled, seeded and diced for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breast, 3/4 of the shrimp, the ginger and scallions in a food processor and process for 2-3 minutes. Add the egg, oyster sauce (if using), and seasoning and process briefly. Set aside.
  • Place 8 wonton wrappers at a time on a surface in diamond fashion with a point towards you; moisten two adjoining edges with the cornstarch paste and place a rounded 1/2 teaspoon of the chicken/shrimp mixture in the center of each. Fold the dry edges over and pinch to seal. Simmer in salted boiling water for 4 minutes. Continue stuffing wrappers until chicken/shrimp mixture is gone.
  • At this point, the wontons can be stored in the fridge overnight after they cool).
  • Bring the chicken broth to a boil, add the remaining whole shrimp and the cucumber and simmer for 3-4 minutes to warm through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Add wontons to warm through. Serve hot in bowls and garnish with scallion, cilantro and diced tomatoes.
