- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water

Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large pot, bring the chicken stock to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the stock and cook for 5-7 minutes until fully cooked.
Stir in the canned sweet corn kernels and creamed corn. Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well-beaten.
Turn the heat to low and gently pour the beaten eggs into the soup in a slow, thin stream, stirring gently with a fork or chopsticks to create silky egg ribbons.
