Ingredients
2 quarts chicken broth
1/4 cup rice-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dark Asian sesame oil
2 teaspoons liquid hot-pepper sauce
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons miso paste*
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1 x 1/2-inch strips
8 white mushrooms, sliced
1 cup coarsely shredded carrots (1 to 2 medium)
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 package (5 ounces) curly dried noodles, cooked and drained
Directions
1. Heat broth in large saucepan to simmering.
2. Mix vinegar, oil and hot-pepper sauce in small bowl. Stir in cornstarch until smooth and well blended.
3. Stir miso paste into hot broth to dissolve. Add chicken, mushrooms, carrots and salt; return to simmering. Re-whisk cornstarch mixture; stir into soup along with scallions. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
4. Divide noodles among serving bowls; ladle in soup.
5. *Miso paste: Made from fermented soybeans and with a peanut-butter-like texture, the paste is used in Japanese cooking to season and thicken soups. Look for it in Japanese markets or well-stocked supermarkets.
