Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large zucchini
- 4 cups bone broth
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 1 inch piece, peeled and sliced ginger
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 3 stalks, sliced green onions
- 1 cup, sliced mushrooms
- 1 large, julienned carrot
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 pound, sliced chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 cut into wedges lime
- 0.5 cup, chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Spiralize the zucchini to create zucchini noodles and set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced chicken breast and cook until lightly browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same pot, add the ginger, garlic, and white parts of the green onions. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms and carrots to the pot and cook for an additional 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the bone broth, coconut aminos, fish sauce, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Let simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Return the cooked chicken back to the pot along with the baby spinach. Stir until the spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the zucchini noodles and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the noodles are al dente.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with the remaining green onion tops and lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
