Asian Chicken Cabbage Soup Recipe

by Liz DellaCroce

This 10-minute Asian chicken soup recipe is full of classic flavors like fresh ginger and toasted sesame oil.

At least two or three days a week, soup is my go-to lunch. Easy, versatile and nutritious, I love transforming pantry staples and fresh ingredients into a warm and comforting meal.

This Asian Chicken and Cabbage Soup recipe is a dish I make frequently. Using handy short cuts like shredded rotisserie chicken and relying on my well-stocked Asian pantry, the whole meal comes together in just 10 minutes.

Instead of noodles, I like to use shredded cabbage to keep the dish low carb yet still high in protein. Of course, rice noodles would work well too. For garnishes go crazy with whatever you have on hand such as cilantro, jalapeño slices or extra hoisin sauce.

Your spoon is waiting.
