Quick Answer

Simmer Bibigo frozen mini wontons in Kirkland chicken broth flavored with soy, ginger, and garlic for 10 minutes — the wontons cook directly in the broth. Two main ingredients, 15 minutes total, four bowls of restaurant-style wonton soup.

Costco's Bibigo mini chicken and cilantro wontons are one of the best freezer staples in the store. They cook in 5 minutes from frozen and taste genuinely good. Dress them up with a simple broth — chicken broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic — and you have wonton soup that's better than most takeout versions in under 15 minutes.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic in a medium pot. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes to infuse the broth.

  2. 2

    Add frozen wontons directly to the simmering broth. Cook for 5–6 minutes until they float and the wrappers are tender.

  3. 3

    Add bok choy in the last 2 minutes of cooking.

  4. 4

    Remove from heat. Stir in sesame oil and white pepper.

  5. 5

    Ladle into bowls. Top with sliced green onions and a drizzle of chili oil or sriracha.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to thaw Bibigo wontons before adding them to soup?+
No — add them directly from the freezer to simmering broth. They cook through in 5–6 minutes. Thawing first makes them stick together and is unnecessary.
How do I know when wontons are fully cooked?+
Wontons are done when they float to the surface of the broth and the wrappers look translucent and tender rather than opaque and firm. Give one a gentle press — if there's no resistance, they're done.
Can I use the Bibigo wontons for other dishes besides soup?+
Yes — pan-fry in a little oil for 4 minutes per side for crispy potstickers, or steam for 8 minutes and serve with dipping sauce (soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili oil). They also work well in a simple soy-butter sauce tossed with noodles.
What makes a good wonton broth?+
The best wonton broth is clear, deeply savory, and aromatic without being heavy. The three essentials are good-quality chicken broth, sesame oil (added at the end to preserve its flavor), and a little soy sauce for depth. Ginger and garlic round it out. Avoid adding too many aromatics — the wonton filling is the star.
