Chinese Noodle Soup
This healthy and delicious Chinese noodle soup has a comforting aromatic broth packed with noodles, chicken, and bok choy.
My son has been feeling under the weather so I made this quick and easy Chinese noodle soup recipe I found on Recipe Tin Eats for lunch recently. The broth simmered with the aromatics for a while to make it extra flavorful and when served, it was loaded with tender noodles, shredded roasted chicken, baby bok choy, and green onion. The soup was a big hit with my son and disappeared quickly.
