Ingredients:
0.25 cups finely chopped cooked chicken
0.25 cups finely chopped celery
2 tablespoon finely chopped green onion (scallion)
0.5 each Sunkist® lemons -grated peel
12 each oz. wonton skins (3 1/2 -inch squares)
3 each cans (10 3/4 ounces each) condensed chicken broth
5 cups water

0.5 cups shredded carrots
0.5 each Sunkist® lemons , cut into cartwheel slices (see recipe)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional) Or substitute 9 cups homemade chicken stock for the broth and water
Directions:
To make the filling, in a small bowl, combine the chicken, celery, green onion, and lemon peel; mix well.

To make each wonton, lightly dampen the edges of the wonton skin with water.

Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of wonton; fold in half to top edge (to form a rectangle). Fold again (toward top) to within 1/8 inch of top edge.

Press sides to seal in filling; dampen ends with water. Laying rectangle on flat surface, form a horseshoe shape (top edge stretches as dampened ends form bottom of horseshoe). Overlap ends (one on top of the other).

Press to seal.

To make the soup, in a large saucepot, combine the chicken broth and water; bring to a boil.

Add the wontons; boil gently for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and add zucchini, mushrooms, and carrots.

Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes; add lemon cartwheel slices and cook 2 minutes more, until vegetables and wontons are tender. Add the soy sauce.

SHRIMP VARIATION: Substitute 1 cup (1/3 pound) tiny cooked shrimp, finely chopped, for the chicken.
