Recipe- Winter Special Chicken Manchow Soup

This manchow soup recipe comes pretty darn close to the street style one, aaaand you can tuck in under a blanket and watch Netflix all day and drink bowls and bowls of this soup.

With most Chinese food, the prep takes longer than the actual cooking time and that’s true for this soup as well. Apart from that, this soup is super easy and comes together in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons Oil
1 tablespoon chopped Garlic
1 tablespoon chopped Ginger
1-2 chopped Green Chilli

Method

* In a large dutch oven or soup pot heat oil and add ginger, garlic, white part of spring onions and onions. Saute for 2-3 minutes and add the chicken breast.
