This is a very simple, versatile soup adapted from a recipe called Kenchin-Jiru. You can also use pork, beef or your favorite seafood. I sometimes add konyaku to this dish just for something different. (times are estimates)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup boneless skinless chicken (cut to bite size pieces)
1 carrot, cut bite size
1 onion, cut into chunks
1 celery, sliced thin at an angle
1 potato, cut into half rounds
1 daikon radish, cut into half rounds
10 ounces firm tofu, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil
4 -6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup miso (dissolved in some water)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (i use kikkoman lite)
2 stalks green onions, finely sliced for garnish
Directions:
1. Stir fry chicken and vegetables in oil over medium heat for a few minutes.
2. Add broth; bring to a boil, then lower heat to simmer.
3. Add half of the miso mix.
4. When vegetables are cooked, add remaining ingredients (except green onion).
5. Garnish with green onion.
