We love a tasty bowl of wonton soup but especially one that has a nice little kick of spiciness. The filling for these wontons is an easy mixture of ground chicken or turkey (or pork if you'd like), minced carrots and green onion, along with a bit of fish sauce and chili pepper for heat. It's a simple soup that's perfect to serve this Chinese New Year beginning on January 31. We recommend making a double batch of the filling for later use or to make shumai!
