Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Chicken breast
- 150 grams Baby corn
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Ginger
- 1 medium Carrots
- 2 stalks Spring onions
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Oil
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips or bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Slice the baby corn lengthwise, thinly slice the carrots, chop the spring onions, and mince the garlic and ginger.
In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat and sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a gentle boil.
Add the baby corn and carrots to the pot. Reduce the heat and simmer the soup for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Slowly stir the slurry into the soup to thicken it slightly.
Add the soy sauce, salt, and black pepper, and adjust the seasoning to taste.
Garnish the soup with chopped spring onions before serving.
