Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken breast
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 medium, diced onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon, grated ginger
• 2 medium, julienned carrots
• 1 cup, sliced shiitake mushrooms
• 2 small heads, chopped bok choy
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 8 ounces rice noodles
• 2 stalks, thinly sliced green onions
• 0.25 cup, chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 cut into wedges lime
• 0.5 teaspoon (optional) crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat, then sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside to rest before shredding into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until aromatic and softened.

Step 3

Stir in the carrots, shiitake mushrooms, and bok choy. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 4

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Add the shredded chicken back into the pot. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 6

Meanwhile, cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 7

To serve, divide the rice noodles among serving bowls. Ladle the hot soup over the noodles.

Step 8

Garnish with green onions, fresh cilantro, and a lime wedge. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes for extra heat, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious flavors of Abby's Oriental Yum Yum Soup!
