Is there anything better than cozying up on the couch with blankets and a steaming, flavorful bowl of chicken noodle soup on a cold day?
Start by frying the shallot and garlic until they are crispy. Keep a close eye, they can go from browned to burned quickly.
Once your shallot and garlic are fried, you’ll cook the rest of your aromatics. Start with coriander and star anise, followed by the lemongrass, ginger and pepper. Next comes the broth. Pacific Foods Organic Unsalted Chicken Bone Broth is so savory and flavorful that you can sip it by the cup. Here, it adds even more depth and complexity to the spice-infused soup.
Cook the chicken in the broth then remove and shred. Portion out your cooked noodles and chicken into soup bowls and top with broth, fresh herbs and bean sprouts. It’s so flavorful and enticing that you’ll add it to your regular rotation year-round.
