Step-by-Step Instructions

Heat a splash of oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until golden and fragrant.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and coconut milk, stirring to blend into a creamy mixture. Increase heat and bring to a gentle simmer for about 5 minutes.
Carefully introduce the potstickers into the simmering broth. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring gently until heated through and tender.
Stir in soy sauce and fresh lime juice to adjust seasoning and brighten flavors. Taste and balance if necessary.
Ladle soup into bowls and garnish generously with chopped cilantro and sliced green onions.
Serve the soup hot, ensuring each bowl has several potstickers floating in the creamy broth.
