Poached Chicken Asian Soup
- Prep: 5 mins
- 15 mins
- Serves: 4

I love having poached chicken in the fridge that I can throw onto a soup, pop into a sandwich or toss through a salad. Add noodles to this soup for something more hearty or keep it light for a quick midweek dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 poached chicken breasts (I used simple this recipe)
- 8 cups chicken broth/stock (or 8 cups of water and 2 chicken stock cubes)
- 2 tbsp tamari (or all purpose soy)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 garlic cloves whole
- 200g mushrooms of choice sliced
- 1 bunch buk choy halved
- 200g egg noodles
- Fried shallot to serve (I use these)
- Chilli oil or sauce to serve (optional)
- Black and white sesame seeds to serve (optional)
Method
- In a large pot add chicken broth/stock (or water and stock cubes if using), tamari (or all purpose soy) and 2 whole garlic cloves. Bring to the boil on high heat.
- Add mushrooms, simmer on medium heat for 5 minutes.
- In final 2 mins of cooking, add egg noodles and bok choy.
- Serve in individual bowls topped with poached chicken, sesame oil, fried shallots, chilli sauce/oil and sesame seeds if using.
