Notes
- To make this recipe gluten free, omit the potstickers. Sliced chicken breast or rice noodles can be added instead. If adding chicken, add it at the same time you would the potstickers. If adding rice noodles, add them 4 minutes after adding the shiitake mushrooms. Allow them to cook in the soup for 4-6 minutes.
- To make this recipe vegetarian, replace the chicken potstickers with vegetarian potstickers and omit the fish sauce. Replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth. Make sure the red curry paste used is vegetarian.
