Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups sweet corn kernels
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
  • 1 large carrot, diced
  • 1 cup green peas
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Begin by poaching the chicken breast in a medium pot. Place the chicken breast in the pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 2

Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool. Once cool, shred the chicken using two forks and set aside.

Step 3

In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger, sautéing until the onion is translucent and aromatic, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the chicken broth to the pot, followed by the sweet corn kernels, diced carrot, and green peas. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 5

Stir in the shredded chicken and soy sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to form a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the soup, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

Step 7

Slowly drizzle the beaten egg into the soup, stirring gently with a fork to create egg ribbons.

Step 8

Let the soup simmer for another 2 minutes or until it thickens slightly.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
