Egg Flower Soup and Spring Greens with Oranges and Grilled Chicken
Asian Egg Flower Soup
Ingredients
4 cups prepared chicken stock, plus 2 tablespoons
2 tsp arrowroot powder (optional, for thickening - adds about 4 carbs to recipe)
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 green onions, chopped, including ends
Salt and white pepper, to taste
Directions
Bring soup stock, grated ginger and soy sauce to a boil. In a small cup, make a slurry by combining the arrowroot and 2 tablespoons of chicken stock. Stir until dissolved. Slowly pour in the arrowroot mixture while stirring the stock, until thickened. Reduce heat to a simmer. Pour in the eggs slowly while stirring the soup in the same direction. The egg will spread and feather. Turn off the heat and add the green onions. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately
