The Idea: Move over chicken noodle soup-ramen is the new bowl of comfort. Here, we offer a Japanese-style chicken soup twist, flavored with miso, soy sauce, chile paste, and porcini mushrooms. Ingredients:
4 cups boiling water |
1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms |
1 smoked bacon slice |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1 carrot, coarsely chopped |
2 tablespoons yellow miso |
2 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce |
2 cups no-salt-added chicken stock |
3 garlic cloves, crushed |
1 (1/2-inch) piece ginger, cut into thin slices |
8 ounces fresh chinese egg noodles or ramen noodles |
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil, divided |
2 (4-ounce) packages gourmet fresh mushrooms |
6 skin-on, boneless chicken thighs |
3 large eggs |
3/4 cup thinly sliced green onion strips |
2 tablespoons sambal oelek (ground fresh chile paste) |
Directions:
1. Combine 4 cups boiling water and porcini; let stand 15 minutes. Drain through a sieve over a bowl; reserve porcini and soaking liquid. Slice porcini; set aside.
2. Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add bacon; cook until almost crisp. Increase heat to medium-high. Add onion and carrot; sauté 2 minutes. Combine miso and soy sauce. Add miso mixture, porcini liquid, stock, garlic, and ginger to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain mixture through a sieve over a bowl; discard solids. Wipe pan clean. Return broth to pan; bring to a boil. Add noodles; cook 8 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat.
3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon sesame oil to pan; swirl. Add fresh mushrooms; sauté 8 minutes. Remove from pan; combine porcini and fresh mushrooms. Add remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil to pan; swirl. Add chicken, skin-side down; sauté 7 minutes or until skin is very crisp and golden brown. Turn chicken over; sauté 2 minutes or until done.
4. Place eggs in a small saucepan; add water to cover. Bring to a boil; cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat; let stand 3 minutes. Drain; rinse under cold water. Drain and peel.
5. Divide noodle mixture among 6 bowls; top each serving with 3 tablespoons mushroom mixture, 2 tablespoons green onions, 1 chicken thigh, 1/2 egg, and 1 teaspoon sambal.
