Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 stalks Celery
- 1 medium Carrot
- 200 grams Cabbage
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Bok choy
Instructions
Begin by preparing the chicken breast. Cut it into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Mince the garlic and finely chop the onion. Add them to the pot and sauté until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Slice the celery stalks thinly, chop the carrot into small cubes, and shred the cabbage. Add the celery and carrot to the pot and cook for another 3 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook until they are no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to simmer.
Add the shredded cabbage to the pot and continue simmering for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Stir in the heavy cream and fish sauce and season with salt and black pepper.
Roughly chop the bok choy and add it to the pot. Simmer for another 5 minutes until the bok choy is tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Filipino Chicken Sopas!
