Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups chopped onion
2 tablespoons diced peeled fresh ginger
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound skinless and boneless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch-thick pieces
3 cups water
3 cans low-sodium, fat-free chicken stock (14 1/2-ounce cans)
3 cups fresh or frozen yellow corn
4 ginseng tea bags or 2 chopped ginseng roots
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ a teaspoon of white pepper
To make
The Chinese believe that cold drinks are bad for the digestive system, so the soup is served not as a first course, but as a drink during meals. Since it is more affordable than fresh ginseng, we tested the recipe with ginseng tea.
Heat the oil in a roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, ginger, and garlic cloves; simmer for 2 minutes. Add chicken; simmer 4 minutes. Add water and stock; bring to a boil. Add corn and ginseng tea; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 20 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
