Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • ½ pound boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced

  • ¼ cup chopped onion

  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 8 cups chicken broth, or more to taste

  • 12 frozen pot stickers

  • 6 cups chopped mustard cabbage (mustard leaves)

  • 2 (3 ounce) packages ramen noodles (without flavor packet) (Optional)

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce, or to taste

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a 4-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken, onion, ginger, and garlic. Stir-fry until chicken is no longer pink inside, 6 to 7 minutes. Pour in broth and bring to a boil.

  2. Add pot stickers; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add mustard greens and noodles and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with soy sauce, salt, and pepper.

Cook's Notes:

We add Hawaiian-style saimin noodles depending if we have them or not.

Substitute pork loin for chicken if desired. Add other veggies such as sliced mushrooms and carrots, whatever you like!
