Follow The Directions

01

Step

Soak the Noodles: Place bean thread noodles in a large bowl and cover with warm water, ensuring they are submerged by 1 inch. Let them soak until softened, approximately 15 minutes. Drain well and cut the noodles into shorter, manageable lengths.

02

Step

Poach the Chicken: In a large pot, add the chicken breasts and cover with water by several inches. Bring to a boil and cook until the chicken is cooked through. This should take about 7-10 minutes, with an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

03

Step

Shred the Chicken: Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board. Using two forks, shred the chicken into thin strands. Return the shredded chicken to the pot with the boiling water.

04

Step

Build the Soup Base: Add the chicken broth to the pot, reduce heat to medium-high. Incorporate the sliced onion, chopped garlic, ginger slices, bay leaves, fish sauce, and soy sauce. Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil and add the prepared noodles. Cook until the noodles become translucent, about 5 minutes.

05

Step

Add the Greens: Stir in the chopped bok choy and cook until the leaves slightly wilt, approximately 1-2 minutes. Serve hot over steamed rice.

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.
Adjust the amount of patis (fish sauce) to your preference.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as mushrooms or carrots for added nutrients and flavor.
