- 2 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce

Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 400F and lightly oil a 9x13 baking dish.
-
2
In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 lbs ground pork, 2 cups finely chopped napa cabbage, 6 thinly sliced scallions, 2 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 4 cloves minced garlic cloves, half the soy sauce, and half the toasted sesame oil. Mix well by hand until evenly combined.

3
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining soy sauce, remaining toasted sesame oil, and 2 tbsp rice vinegar to make the drizzle. Set aside.
-
4
Brush the bottom of the baking dish with 2 tbsp vegetable oil, then lay down a layer of wonton wrappers, overlapping slightly to cover the base.
-
5
Spread one third of the pork mixture evenly over the wrappers, then pour a splash of chicken broth over the filling to keep it moist. Top with another layer of wonton wrappers.
-
6
Repeat layering pork mixture, broth, and wrappers two more times, ending with a final layer of wrappers on top.
-
7
Pour any remaining 1 cup chicken broth over the top layer and sprinkle evenly with 2 cups shredded shredded mozzarella cheese.
-
8
Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake 10 more minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
-
9
Insert an instant-read thermometer into the center of the pork filling; it should read at least 160F. Bake a few minutes longer if needed.

Let the lasagna rest for 5 minutes, then drizzle with the soy-vinegar mixture and spoonfuls of 1/4 cup chili crisp before slicing and serving.
