Ingredients

1 chicken thigh

100g celery

100g carrot

1/2 of an onion (100g)

3-4 brown mushrooms

10g fresh ginger

60g mung bean vermicelli (glass noodles)

2 tsp Kikkoman Naturally Brewed Less Salt Soy Sauce

a dash of coarse-ground black pepper

finely chopped parsley, for garnish

 

(A) 1L water

1 tbsp bouillon powder

2 tbsp cooking sake

1 tsp dried oregano

Method

  1. Remove the strings from the celery, then slice diagonally into 1cm pieces. Peel the carrot and slice into 5mm-thick quarter rounds or half-moons. Dice the onions into 1.5cm pieces. Slice the mushrooms into 5mm pieces. Thinly slice the ginger with the skin on.
  2. Add the (A) ingredients (water, bouillon, sake, and oregano) into a large pot, cover, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce to medium-low heat and simmer for 15 minutes, skimming off any scum that rises to the surface.
  3. Remove the chicken from the pot and add the vermicelli (glass noodles). Cook for approx. 2 minutes until soft.
  4. Add Kikkoman Naturally Brewed Less Salt Soy Sauce and sprinkle with a dash of pepper. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, arrange the slices in a bowl, then pour the soup over the chicken. Garnish with chopped parsely to taste.

Key tip

Chicken’s natural umami pairs with fragrant ginger and oregano to create a chicken soup that is both hearty and low-salt. A healthy and delicious dish!
