Chicken Noodle Soup

By paruspm
Ingredients:
1/2 bunch bok choy
450g (15oz) hokkien noodle or any other cooked
6 cup chicken stock ( u can prepare a nice stock by steamin chicken in pressure cooker with onion ginger garlic and green chillies)
2 Tbsp Light soya sauce( i recommnd this light one  - u can pick it up from chinese store)
1 tbsp ginger julienne
2 tsp oyster sauce
1 tsp white sugar
400g chicken breasts cut widthways into 1cm 1/2 inch slices
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 cup spring onion(scallion) julienne
2 large red chillies(finely sliced)
Method:
Remove cores from bok choy, cut crossways into 4, then wash thorughly and drain
Place noodles in a colander and rinse well under hot running water , then drain
Bring stock to the boil in a large heavy-based pot.Add soy sauce , ginger, oyster sauce and sugar and stir to combine
Reduce heat ,add drained noodles and simmer gently for 30 secs.
Add bok choy and chicken and simmer for further 2 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through.( I added the precooked pressure cooked chicken)
Stir in sesame oil , then  remove pot from stove.
Place spring onion and Red chillies in a separate bowl and serve alongside soup.
My Tip- I included some veggies – carrots(julien),mushroom to this original recipe.Also added in the spring onion and red chilles towards the end to let the flavour seep in.Had prepared devoid of Oyster sauce and sesame oil and still tasted good.Total cooking time only 15 mins for this healthy and nutritious soup.
