Supper Time 4/2- Kimchi chicken soup

This is a really refreshing soup with intense flavors.  This is based off a recipe in last December’s Food & Wine mag.

march2009-124

1.  Make some chicken stock, or pull some out of the pantry.

2.  If using leftover chicken, shred it with a fork, or cook two chicken thighs in a little vegetable oil,  just seasoned with salt and pepper.

2.  Cook 7-8 sliced shiitake mushrooms in a little oil.  Remove mushrooms from pan once they are brown, and bloom 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger.  After ginger cooks for about 1 min, add 4 cups of stock.

3.  Add about 1/2 cup (I used more because I really like kimchi) thinly sliced kimchi, 6 oz diced tofu, chicken, mushrooms, and any veggies you might like to add.  I used about 2/3 cup of baby peas, the sweetness added alot to the recipe.

4.  One everything is at a simmer, add 4 oz udon noodles, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1/2 tbsp sesame oil and sriracha to taste.  Simmer for about 5 minutes and eat.
