Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Miki noodles
- 200 grams Chicken breast, sliced into thin strips
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 1 cup Cabbage, shredded
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 small Onion, chopped
- 6 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce, low sodium
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 whole Lemon or calamansi, sliced
Instructions
Begin by boiling the chicken breast strips in a pot of water for about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the chicken strips to the pot and stir well, cooking for about 3 minutes until slightly browned.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
In a separate pot, boil water and cook the Miki noodles according to the package instructions, usually around 4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Add the julienned carrot and shredded cabbage to the soup and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce, fish sauce, and black pepper to taste. Let the soup blend together for 2 more minutes.
Lastly, add the cooked Miki noodles to the soup, stirring gently to combine.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve with lemon or calamansi slices on the side for a refreshing citrus twist.
