Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 quarts Basic Chicken Stock for Chicken and Kale Soup
2 whole skinless chicken breasts, halved
Coarse salt
1/2 pound soba noodles
1 pound firm or extra-firm tofu, cut into 1-inch pieces
Freshly ground pepper
2 small carrots, julienned
2 red radishes, trimmed and julienned
1/2 bunch watercress, tough stems removed, for garnish
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium stockpot, bring chicken stock to a simmer over medium heat. Add chicken breasts; return to a simmer. Reduce heat; simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Cover, and keep the stock at a low simmer.
  • Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Add salt, and stir in soba noodles. Cook until soba is al dente according to package instructions. Drain; set aside.
  • Remove the chicken meat from bones, and shred into bite-size pieces. Add tofu to simmering stock just until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, ladle stock and tofu into soup bowls. Add shredded chicken to each bowl, and mound soba noodles in the center. Sprinkle with the carrots and radishes; garnish with watercress and cilantro.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it helped, but it still wasn't as flavorful as I would have liked. The chicken was tender, though.
