Chicken Meatball Soup
It’s cold. So cold. And I’m tired of noodles. That’s why I came up with this recipe for Chicken Meatball Soup. I know it sounds weird now, but once you taste it this is going to be your new go-to comfort food for these cold, cold days.
What You Need To Make Chicken Meatball Soup:
For the meatballs:
- 1/2 pound ground chicken
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 cup crushed crackers
For the soup:
- 2 quarts low sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup diced onion
- 1 cup diced carrot
- 1 cup diced potato
- 1/2 cup sliced bok choy
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (I like shataki for this)
- 3 tablespoons miso soup base
How To Make Chicken Meatball Soup:
In a large bowl, mix all all meatball ingredients until thoroughly blended. Roll into 1/2″ meatballs. In a large pot, place all meatballs at the bottom of the pot, then add all soup ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer (med-low) until the meatballs float to the top and all vegetables are softened.
Pro Tip: This can be in a slow cooker. Prepare exactly the same way, set the slow cooker to low and ignore for four hours. Again, the meatballs will float to the top when done. You can check for doneness by cutting one of the meatballs in half. They should have the same color all the way through. Enjoy!
