Chicken breasts poach right in a seasoned broth, so you get tender shredded chicken and a deeper soup in one pot. Cook the noodles in a separate pot of water so the broth stays clear. Drop the eggs in boiling water for 7 minutes for jammy yolks.

Ingredients

Serves 4

Directions

  1. Bring the broth, garlic, ginger and soy sauce to a simmer in a large pot. Add the chicken, cover, and cook gently for 15 to 18 minutes until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
  2. Meanwhile, boil the eggs in a pot of water for 7 minutes, then move to ice water and peel.
  3. Move the chicken to a board and shred with two forks. Stir the sesame oil into the broth and keep warm.
  4. Cook the noodles in a separate pot of boiling water according to the package, about 3 minutes, adding the bok choy for the last minute. Drain.
  5. Add the corn to the broth and simmer 2 minutes.
  6. Divide the noodles and bok choy among bowls, ladle in the hot broth, and top with chicken, halved eggs and scallions.
  7. Add chili oil if you like heat.

Tips and make-ahead notes

  • Strain the garlic and ginger out of the broth for a cleaner bowl.
  • Keep noodles and broth separate if storing leftovers, up to 3 days.
  • Skip the soft eggs for fully cooked yolks by boiling 10 minutes.
