Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound small skinless, boneless chicken thighs
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
6 slices fresh ginger, lightly smashed, plus 1 tablespoon finely grated
2 scallions, whites cut into 2-inch pieces and greens thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup sugar snap peas
3 carrots
1 9.5-ounce package soba noodles
4 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, combine the chicken thighs, chicken broth, sliced ginger, scallion whites, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds pepper in a large saucepan. Cover and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, about 8 minutes. Uncover and gently simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 10 more minutes.

Add the shiitakes and carrots, return to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Stir in the snap peas.
  • Ladle the soup over the noodles. Top with the scallion greens and grated ginger; sprinkle with shichimi togarashi.

CHICKEN AND MANGO SOBA SALAD WITH PEANUT DRESSING



Chicken and Mango Soba Salad With Peanut Dressing image

Japanese buckwheat noodles are usually served cold or in a hot soup, but here, they're given a bright jolt of color and texture. Delightfully chewy soba noodles are combined with chicken, mango, snap peas, cucumber and a spicy peanut dressing for a great warm-weather lunch that's also picnic-friendly. Serve it alongside any grilled meat or fish, or leave the chicken out to make it vegetarian. To make this ahead, prepare all the salad components in advance, but wait until serving time to combine to keep flavors and textures vibrant.
