Notes
- Use chicken broth for a richer flavor or vegetable broth to keep it vegetarian-friendly.
- Frozen potstickers can be used directly without thawing, adjusting cooking time if needed.
- For extra heat, add a drizzle of chili oil or some sliced fresh chili.
- This soup can be easily customized with added vegetables such as spinach, mushrooms, or bok choy for more nutrition.
- Leftover soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days but best enjoyed fresh to maintain potsticker texture.
