Lemongrass Chicken Soup w Egg Noodles
Prep: 40 min Cook: 30 min Servings: 4by jason kim85 recipes>With the remaining egg noodles that we had the other day, we made a Thai-style soup with chicken, enoki mushrooms, bean sprouts, and kimchi. Everything went well together except for the most important ingredient--the egg noodles. Like I said, we only used it because it was leftover from the chow mein dish but in hindsight we regret "experimenting" with it from the beginning. I am thinking it would have tasted a whole lot better if served with regular rice noodles and possibly some fish sauce for a more authentic Thai soup, but we still enjoyed the soup on this cold winter night. Ingredients
- Ingredients: Serves 4 people
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1/2 cup enoki mushroom
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper (gochugaru)
- 3 lemongrass stalks, bruised
- 1/2 onion halved
- 1 thin piece ginger
- 1/2 cup bean sprout
- 1 cup chopped kimchi
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 7 oz egg noodles
- 1 large chicken breast
- scallion thinly sliced (garnish)
- lime wedges
Directions
- Bring the single chicken breast, lemongrass stalks, onion, and ginger together in a large pot. Boil for 30 minutes while skimming off excess foam floating to the top with a sieve. Remove chicken breast about halfway through.
- In a separate pot, simmer the 6 cups chicken stock with red chili pepper flakes.
- Bring the broths together and let simmer for 10 more minutes.
- Add 1 tbsp oil to frying pan and sear the chicken breast until thoroughly browned. Set aside and cut into strips.
- On the same frying pan, slightly cook the enoki mushrooms for a minute.
- Cook the egg noodles according to package directions and set aside.
- Place noodles, kimchi, mushrooms, bean sprouts, lime wedges, and chicken strips in a bowl.
- Fill with chicken broth and garnish with scallion strips or red bell pepper slices.
- *The chicken breast was boiled first to save time and to ensure a fully cooked chicken. You may skip this step and simply sear it from the beginning.
