Scale

1 pound ground turkey
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 large egg
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth

3 cups fresh baby spinach

3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons cold water

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, panko breadcrumbs, egg, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
Form the turkey mixture into 1-inch meatballs and set aside on a plate.
In the slow cooker, pour in the chicken broth and sesame oil. Turn the slow cooker to low heat.
Carefully drop the turkey meatballs into the broth in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 3 hours, until the meatballs are cooked through.
After 3 hours, add the fresh baby spinach to the slow cooker and stir gently to wilt the spinach.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
Slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the slow cooker broth in a thin stream while gently stirring the soup to create egg ribbons.
In another small bowl, mix cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry.
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the slow cooker and stir gently to thicken the broth slightly.
Cook for an additional 15 minutes on low heat.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
