Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare all ingredients: mince garlic and ginger, slice green onions, and finely chop cabbage, carrots, and mushrooms. Lightly oil a 9×13-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
In a bowl, combine the chopped vegetables with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and a pinch of salt and pepper. If you like a slightly sweeter filling, add a teaspoon of hoisin or a half teaspoon of sugar.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add sesame oil. Sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add ground pork or chicken and cook until no longer pink. Stir in the chopped vegetables and remaining soy sauce; cook until vegetables soften, about 4–6 minutes. Stir in sliced green onions.
In the prepared baking dish, layer wonton wrappers, followed by the meat and vegetable mixture. Repeat layering until the filling is used up, finishing with a layer of wonton wrappers on top. Pour broth evenly over the top. Cover with foil and bake for 25–30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes until golden.
Let sit 5–10 minutes before cutting. Garnish with sliced green onions and a drizzle of sesame oil.

Notes

Serve warm in squares like a lasagna, paired with a green salad or steamed bok choy. Customize with chili oil or extra soy on the side.
