Fresh lime juice adds extra bright flavor. Bringing the broth back to a boil before serving ensures the snap peas cook to a crisp-tender texture. Ingredients:
6 cups chicken broth |
4 skinned and boned chicken thighs (about 1 lb.) |
1/3 cup sliced fresh ginger |
2 garlic cloves, sliced |
1/8 teaspoon chinese five spice |
1 (9.5-oz.) package soba noodles or 8 oz. angel hair pasta |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
2 to 3 tbsp. fresh lime juice |
toppings: thinly sliced sugar snap peas, fresh cilantro and mint leaves, thinly sliced green onions, thinly sliced red chile peppers |
Directions:
1. Bring first 5 ingredients to a boil in a 3-qt. saucepan over medium heat. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 6 to 8 minutes or until chicken is done. Remove chicken, garlic, and ginger with a slotted spoon, reserving broth in saucepan. Discard garlic and ginger. Let chicken cool slightly (10 to 15 minutes); shred chicken.
2. Return broth to a boil over medium heat. Add noodles and soy sauce; cook, stirring to separate noodles, 4 to 5 minutes or until just softened. Remove noodles from broth using tongs, and divide among 6 bowls. Place chicken and desired toppings on noodles. Return broth to a boil over medium heat; remove from heat, and stir in lime juice. Divide broth among bowls.
