- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 white or yellow onion (diced)
- 1 large red bell pepper (sliced into bite-size pieces)
- 2 medium carrots (sliced into bite-size pieces)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons grated or minced fresh ginger
- 1-2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste (to taste)
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 (1-pound) bag frozen potstickers
- 1 (15-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
Sauté. Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, carrots and sauté for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until nearly tender. Add the garlic, ginger, red curry paste and sauté for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Simmer. Add the chicken stock and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the soup reaches a boil.
Cook the potstickers. Add the frozen potstickers to the soup and stir to combine. Add the coconut milk and stir gently until the potstickers are tender.
Season. Taste the broth and season with additional red curry paste if needed.
Serve. Serve immediately and enjoy!
- Don't overcrowd the pot when sautéing vegetables; work in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking and caramelization.
- Adjust the Thai red curry paste to your spice preference; start with less and add more if you like a bolder kick. I often add an extra half tablespoon for a richer flavor.
- For a richer broth, simmer the chicken stock for an additional 5-10 minutes before adding potstickers.
- If using raw chicken or pork potstickers, ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before serving.
