Asian Chicken and Mushroom Soup

Embrace the chilly spring temps with this brothy and flavorful combination of chicken, mushrooms, and vegetables. Salt your chicken thighs, and then brown with a little bit of vegetable oil in a large pot over high heat. Cook approximately four minutes per side, and then set aside.

Turn the heat down to medium, add some more oil, then throw in some drained canned baby corn, snow peas, chopped scallions, sliced shitake mushrooms, and a package of enoki mushrooms making sure to separate them into smaller clumps. Let it all cook for a few minutes then stir in a tablespoon of fresh ginger, followed by the cut up chicken thighs.

Add enough chicken stock to the pot to barely cover all of the ingredients, bring to a boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for fifteen minutes. Add a quarter cup of soy sauce, two tablespoons of Asian fish sauce, and a teaspoon of sesame oil. Make sure to salt and hot sauce to taste before serving.
