Method

Soup Preparation

1

Prepare the Chicken

In a pot, add the chicken thighs and cover with chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until chicken is fully cooked. Remove the chicken, let it cool, and shred it.

2

Cook the Rice

In the same pot of broth, add the rice. Cook according to the rice package instructions, typically about 15 minutes, until the rice is tender.

3

Add Aromatics

In the last 5 minutes of cooking the rice, add minced garlic, sliced ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well.

4

Combine Ingredients

Once the rice is cooked, return the shredded chicken to the pot. Stir until combined and heated through.

5

Serve

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
