Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken breast sliced
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup firm tofu cubed
  • 2 cups baby bok choy chopped
  • 2 scallions sliced
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Method
 

  1. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer and add the sliced chicken.
  2. Simmer 12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  3. Whisk the miso paste with a ladle of broth, then stir it back into the pot.
  4. Add the tofu and bok choy and simmer 3 minutes.
  5. Finish with sesame oil and scallions, keeping the heat low so the miso doesn't boil.

Notes

Don't boil the soup after adding the miso or it loses its flavor.
