Recipe Veggie Chicken Broth Soup

Ingredients :

• 4 c water
• 4 pcs chicken parts (bone, skin on)
• 1 red onion, sliced
• 3 bay leaves
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 thumb of ginger, sliced thinly
• 1/4 of a Chicken bullion or broth cube
• 1 stalk Leeks, sliced crosswise including dark green part
• 4 kinds of leafy green vegetables (bok choy, pechay, Chinese cabbage, celery leaves etc.)
• to taste Salt & pepper
• few leaves of Cilantro for garnish (optional)

Method :

1. Combine first 7 ingredients together in a pot over medium heat.
2. Drop in leeks once you see bubbles starting.
3. Let it boil for 30 to 40 minutes, depending how large your chicken pieces are.
4. When chicken is cooked, drop in all of your sliced leafy greens before you take out the chicken.
5. Cook until veggies are done, about 7-10 minutes.
6. Remove chicken if you"re using it for another dish. If it"s only poaching, you need to remove chicken earlier, especially if cooking breasts. I like using bones in and skin on because it makes the broth tastier, cooking it longer too to get the flavour.
7. Do a taste test before turning off heat, add salt or pepper or more broth powder as desired.
8. Serve as a side soup or entree while hot. Garnish with cilantro, leaves only (optional).
