Easy Asian Chicken Noodle Soup I could live off soup. And this Easy Asian Chicken Noodle Soup is no exception. Asian twist with hints of soy sauce, sesame and ginger. Instead of the classic combination of carrots and celery, I went with hearty shiitake mushrooms, green onions, and shredded carrots, and I have to say, I’m kind of in love with it. This came about because there honestly isn’t a day that goes by, especially in the winter, where I don’t crave it. When sickness first hit our household, my first thoughts were to whip up this version of chicken noodle soup from scratch, because, it is in fact, the most delicious chicken noodle soup recipe you’ll find out there.
Not that I’m biased or anything. However, when you’re sick, you don’t really want to whip up homemade noodles and broth, so on to Plan B. Seeing as I didn’t want to leave the house, I looked to the contents of my pantry and fridge, and found I had pretty much everything to make a semi-homemade batch of chicken noodle soup, except the noodles. After perusing my options, I found a bag of Cantonese Egg Noodles I used on a recipe a while back, and shifted my approach from a standard chicken noodle soup to an Asian-inspired one. Cook until slightly softened, about 2-3 minutes. Pour in chicken stock, soy sauce and vinegar.
Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add noodles and simmer until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Nestle chicken in, and simmer until cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add green onions and season to taste with salt and pepper. Where do I buy Cantonese egg noodles? I picked my noodles up from a local Asian market, but I’ve also found them at many grocery stores.
