Description
Aromatic Ginger Garlic Chicken Noodle Soup is the perfect dish to warm you up on chilly evenings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2 carrots, cut into matchsticks
- 4 ounces dried ramen noodles
- 2 tablespoons black rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons scallion greens
Instructions
- In a large pot, mix boneless chicken thighs, minced garlic, grated ginger, sliced scallion whites, kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes. You want the chicken to be tender and fully cooked, so check for doneness.
- While the chicken simmers, whisk together the black rice vinegar, soy sauce, and toasted sesame oil in a bowl. This flavorful drizzle is key to enhancing your soup.
- Remove the cooked chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Set it aside to keep warm, ready to be added back later.
- Add the dried ramen noodles and carrot matchsticks to the simmering broth. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the noodles are tender but still have a bit of bite.
- Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup. Gently mix until everything is warmed through, and taste to adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, topping each serving with fresh scallion greens and a drizzle of the soy-vinegar sauce for that extra flavor punch.
Notes
- Adjust ginger and garlic based on your taste preference.
- Use low-sodium soy sauce for a healthier option.
- Consider adding other vegetables like bok choy for more flavor.
