Asian Chicken Noodle Soup

I've been sick and when I saw this soup posted on Chassity's year end recap as the "best recipe" I knew I had to make it. It took me a few days to track all the ingredients down, but I finally made it and I have to agree, it's a chart topper!

This recipe is taken from Jenna at Eat Live Run

Asian Chicken Noodle Soup Ingredients: 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger 1 tbsp sesame oil 1/4th tsp salt 6 cups chicken broth 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced 3 green onions, sliced 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp rice vinegar 2 baby bok choy, chopped 5 oz chinese noodles (about half a package) sriracha sauce for serving (optional) chopped cilantro for serving (optional) Directions: -Heat the sesame oil over medium high heat in a large heavy-bottomed stock pot. -Add the minced garlic and ginger and briefly saute for about 30 seconds. -Add the chicken and bok choy, sprinkle with salt, and saute for another three minutes until chicken has turned white but not completely cooked all the way through. -Add the chicken broth, jalapeno and green onions to the pot and bring to a simmer.  cook for 15 minutes until chicken is done. -Meanwhile, cook the noodles in boiling salted water, drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside. -Add the rice vinegar and soy sauce and stir. -Add the noodles to the pot and serve with chopped cilantro and sriracha sauce on the side. ***MY NOTES*** -I could not find Chinese noodles and used about 1/3 of a box of thin spaghetti instead. -This turned out to be so hot that I couldn't even add the Sriracha sauce. I would recommend removing the seeds from the jalapeno to lessen the heat. -To mince ginger, carefully cut outside peel off and chop into tiny pieces. -Bok choy can be found in the produce section of your grocery store near the lettuce and fresh herbs. -To chop bok choy, start on the white end (similar to celery) continuing to the green leafy end. Use all. I had never cooked with fresh ginger or bok choy before and I had a few questions, that may seem silly to you, but for others click the links for extra help! Enjoy!
