Pam's Asian Chicken Noodle Bowl (Pho) image

This is my take on a quick, at home version of Pho. Some of my ingredients are non traditional, but it's my recipe, right? My husband's eyes light up when I hand him a giant bowl of this to enjoy and that's what counts.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 19

FOR THE BROTH
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, you can use other cuts if preferred
1 Tbsp better than bullion chicken flavor
1/2 white onion
1 tsp ground ginger in the tube, or fresh grated ginger
1 tsp ground lemongrass in the tube, or stalk fresh
1 Tbsp thai fish sauce
FOR THE BOWLS
1 pkg pho noodles, or substitute rice noodles or regular thin spaghetti
4 or 5 leaves napa cabbage, sliced across in 1 inch sections
1 c snow pea pods
1/2 c julienne or matchstick carrots
1 c fresh bean sprouts
2 c fresh baby spinach
GARNISHES
1 jalapeno sliced thin
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
thai red chili sauce or siracha sauce
1 fresh limes cut in wedges

Steps:

  • 1. Note: I use breasts to keep it low fat. If you want a more traditional flavor use skin on bone in pieces of your choice. Adjust your cooking time.
  • 2. Ingredient note: I use the tubes of ginger and lemongrass that you find in the produce section of the grocery. It's a time saver for me and I always have them on hand.
  • 3. Place everything for the broth in a pot with about 3 quarts of water. Bring to a slow simmer and skim off the skum that rises.
  • 4. When chicken is done remove it from the pot. About 20 minutes for boneless breasts. Leave the broth simmering.
  • 5. Prepare your noodles according to package directions. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water.
  • 6. Have all of your bowl ingredients ready. Put the snow peas, cabbage,and carrots in the broth. Turn up heat and cook on a low boil for 5 minutes.
  • 7. While that's cooking assemble the bowls. Place noodles in first, top with spinach and sprouts.
  • 8. Slice the chicken and place on top.
  • 9. Ladle the hot broth into the bowls. The heat will be enough to cook the spinach and sprouts.
  • 10. Serve immediately with the garnishes.
