Ingredients
Broth & base
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 tbsp olive oil
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2″ fresh ginger, peeled and julienned
1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
1 tsp sesame oil
Salt & black pepper, to taste
Pick your bowl fillings (choose one or mix)
4 oz cooked chicken breast, shredded or sliced
1 cup cooked soba noodles or rice noodles
1 cup mixed greens (bok choy, spinach, kale)
½ cup sliced mushrooms
1 soft‑boiled egg (optional)
Garnishes
Sliced green onions
Toasted sesame seeds
Chili flakes or Sriracha (optional, for heat)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic slices and ginger julienne and sauté 2‑3 minutes until fragrant (do not burn).
Pour in the broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
While the broth simmers, prepare your base: cook noodles (if using) and wilt greens or sauté mushrooms briefly.
Season the broth with salt and black pepper as needed.
Divide noodles/greens/mushrooms into bowls. Top with the cooked protein and soft‑boiled egg if using.
Ladle hot broth over everything. Finish each bowl with green onions, sesame seeds, and a squirt of chili or Sriracha if you like it spicy.
