Time 38m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 inches peeled ginger
2 onions, halved
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
5 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
3 ounces rice vermicelli
2 scallions, sliced thin (white only)
1 1/2 cups bean sprouts
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped mint
lime wedge

Steps:

  • Blacken ginger and onions by threading on a metal skewer and holding over a gas burner flame and turning until scorched on all sides (1-2 minutes).
  • Leave one piece ginger whole, chop the other when cool.
  • Combine broth, chicken, fish sauce, peppercorns, blackened onions, and the whole ginger piece in a large saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove chicken and shred into bite-sized pieces.
  • Continue simmering broth for about 20 minutes.
  • In the mean time, soak vermicelli in a large bowl of warm water until softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Drain and set aside.
  • Strain broth, discard solids, and return to a boil.
  • Add chopped ginger and scallions, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • To serve: divide vermicelli into 4 bowls, tops with bean sprouts and shredded chicken, then ladle over broth.
  • Serve with cilantro, mint, and lime on the side.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices.

Just made this soup and it was delicious! I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and it was still very tender. The ginger and lemongrass really shine through in the broth.
