Asian Chicken and Corn SoupThis recipe is from the Penzey's catalog. The submitters are Irish, and according to them, this soup is served in every Chinese restaurant in Ireland. It has a lot of characteristics of egg drop soup. It is delicious, and is a meal in itself, at least for me.

Total Time: 10 minutes prep, 30 minutes to cook if you use premade stock, 15-20 minutes longer if you make your own.

Yield: 10

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 can (15 oz) corn (or 2 cups corn kernels)
  • 1 can (15 oz) creamed corn
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 piece (1-1 1/2 inch) fresh ginger, crushed or 1 tsp minced ginger from a jar
  • 2 green onions, chopped (I didn't have any, so I left this out)
  • salt, to taste
  • 2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  1. Place the chicken in a saucepan in a single layer. Add just enough water to cover them. Put a lid on the saucepan and simmer until cooked through. Mine took about 18 minutes, but they were very thick.

    Skim off any foam that you see.

  3. While the chicken is cooking, combine the two cans of corn and the chicken stock in a large pot and simmer about 20 minutes. An alternative is to wait until the chicken is done and use the water left from cooking the chicken. It takes more time, but I did it and it is totally worth it.
