Ingredients:

Serving

1 (5 -6 oz) skinless chicken breast halves
2 tbsp chinese rice wine or 2 tbsp dry sherry
1 1/2 tsp dark sesame oil, divided
3 tbsp cornstarch, divided
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
1 tbsp finely shredded fresh ginger
4 cups reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 (12 oz) container shelf-stable firm silken tofu, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 1/2 cups frozen corn
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion ( including tops)
salt
white pepper

Directions:

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Slice crosswise into 1/8-inch thick strips. Combine with rice wine, 1/2 tsp sesame oil, and 1 tbsp cornstarch in a small bowl.
In a 3-4 quart nonstick pan over high heat, stir garlic and ginger in 1/2 tsp sesame oil for 10 seconds. Add chicken and stir-fry until no longer pink on surface, about 2 minutes.
Add broth; cover pan and bring to a boil. Add tofu and corn to broth and return to a simmer.
In a small bowl, combine remaining 2 tbsp cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water until smooth. Add to soup; bring to boil, stirring constantly. Pour egg into soup, stirring gently for about 30 seconds to form thin strands of egg. Add remaining 1/2 tsp sesame oil, green onions, and season to taste with salt and white pepper. Ladle into bowls and serve.
