2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, finely grated with a rasp
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated with a rasp
3 scallions, thinly sliced, greens and whites separated
4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, sliced
5 cups chicken bone broth or low-sodium chicken broth
4 heads baby bok choy, quartered lengthwise
2 tablespoons soy sauce
One 12-ounce package frozen wontons (about 20)
Kosher salt

Steps:

In a medium pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger and white parts of the scallions and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the shiitakes and cook until they begin to soften, another minute.
Add the bone broth and bring to a boil. Add the bok choy and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the bok choy is tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce and stir. Add the wontons and cook until they are cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and season if necessary.
Ladle into bowls, then top with the scallion greens. Serve immediately.
