This stew serves four as a light side dish. Serve with a side salad for more of a complete luncheon meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 C. water
  • 1 chicken-flavored bouillon cube
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled, sliced
  • 1 packet (2 oz.) Thai cellophane noodles or rice stick noodles
  • 1 C. small fresh spinach leaves
  • 2 green onions (green part only), chopped
  • 1 tsp. pre-chopped ginger or peeled and chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp. Thai garlic-chile sauce or more to taste

Directions

In a 4-qt. saucepan, place the chicken breast, water, bouillon cube and garlic. Heat over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the broth; reserve the broth in the pan. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred it into strips; set it aside. Place the pan of chicken broth back over medium-high heat, cover the pan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir in the noodles, spinach, green onions, ginger and garlic-chile sauce. Let the noodles boil, uncovered, until al dente, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, stir in the shredded chicken and cook until the chicken heats through, about 1 minute. Ladle the stew into serving bowls and serve at once.

Yield: 4 Servings.
