Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 small white onion, finely diced
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into ½-inch cubes
- 6 cups low-sodium chicken bone broth
- 2 cups fresh sweet corn kernels
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 3 tbsp cold water
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Instructions:
- Heat the avocado oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, then stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger for 60 seconds until fragrant.
- Increase heat to medium-high and add the cubed chicken. Sear for 2 minutes until the exterior is opaque.
- Pour in the chicken bone broth, water, and corn kernels. Bring to a gentle simmer for 10–12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and corn is tender.
- Stir in the coconut aminos, sea salt, and white pepper.
- Whisk the cornstarch into the cold water to create a slurry. Slowly stir the slurry into the soup, whisking constantly until the broth thickens and becomes glossy.
- Turn the heat to low. While stirring the soup in a circular motion, slowly drizzle in the beaten eggs in a thin stream to create delicate ribbons.
- Remove from heat immediately. Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame oil before serving.
