Turkey Broth Wonton Soup. Great recipe for Turkey Broth Wonton Soup. This is a recipe I've always done with chicken broth. Usually I use premade broth from the store which will cut down on the time significantly.

Pork and shrimp are far more common fillings for wontons than turkey, but substituting turkey for pork makes these dumplings leaner and healthier, without any great sacrifice in flavor. The trickiest part of this recipe is the folding of the wontons, but it is easy to get the hang of it in a couple of tries. Transfer the wonton to a baking sheet and keep covered with a damp cloth.

Both recipes call for the wontons to be boiled. The first one is served in a light broth while the second one is served in a sauce made with fish sauce, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
