This Egg Roll Soup recipe brings together all of those irresistible egg roll flavors we love…in a soup!! It’s quick and easy to make, and easy to customize.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium white onion, peeled and diced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
- 6–8 cups chicken or vegetable stock
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- optional toppings: toasted sesame seeds, thinly-sliced green onions
Instructions
- Step: Add ground chicken to a large stockpot and cook over medium-heat for 5-6 minutes, stirring and flipping occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken to a separate plate, and set aside.
- Step: Add the olive oil and onion, and stir to combine. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the carrots and garlic, and sauté for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cabbage, stock, ginger, and cooked chicken, and stir to combine.
- Step: Continue cooking until the soup reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the carrots and cabbage are nice and tender. Stir in the sesame oil until combined. Then taste and season the soup with a few generous pinches of salt and black pepper as needed.
- Step: Serve warm, garnished with your desired toppings.
Notes
Feel free to use ground chicken, ground turkey, or mushrooms if you prefer a meatless option. For a crispy finish, you can top the soup with homemade fried egg roll wrapper strips or store-bought wonton strips.
