  • Total Time: 17 mins
  • Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cans, or about 5 1/4 cups, good quality chicken broth
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 heaping TBS cornstarch
  • 4 eggs
  • Sesame oil for drizzling
  • Salt, to taste
  • Sliced green onion and freshly ground black pepper for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the chicken broth, ground ginger, garlic powder, and cornstarch until fully combined. Place the saucepan on the stove and heat to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  2. While the broth comes to a boil, whisk the eggs in a measuring cup (or other easy pour container).
  3. Once the broth is boiling, remove from heat and begin stirring the broth in a circular motion while slowly drizzling in the eggs. The eggs will instantly cook as it hits the boiling liquid.
  4. Drizzle in a little sesame oil for extra taste (I use about 1/2 tsp but you can use as much or as little as you prefer). Add salt, tasting until desired flavor is reached.
  5. Serve topped with sliced green onion and a sprinkle of black pepper.
