Ingredients:
4 eggs
3 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce, divided
1¼ lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into thin slices
2½ lbs. kohlrabi to yield 20 oz. or 6 cups “noodles”
2 cups chicken broth
2 scallions, cut into ¼-inch rings
½ cup fresh basil, gently torn into pieces
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1 teaspoon chili oil
Directions:
1. Place eggs into a small sauce pan and cover with an inch of water. Bring water to a boil, and simmer gently for 6 minutes. Once cooked, place eggs in ice cold water and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Carefully peel the eggs and place them into a small, re-sealable bag. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce and gently push out as much air as possible from the bag. Seal and allow eggs to marinate for one hour.
2. Combine chicken slices with one tablespoon of soy sauce and allow to marinate for 30 to 60 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, peel the kohlrabi and cut or slice it with a “spiralizer”, vegetable peeler, or mandolin to make long “noodles.” Set aside.
4. Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large soup pot. Add the red pepper flakes, kohlrabi “noodles”, and chicken. Simmer until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes.
5. Stir in the basil and scallions.
6. Remove the eggs from the soy marinade and cut them in half. Arrange an equal amount of kohlrabi noodles and chicken into 4 soup bowls, and carefully pour an equal amount of broth over top. Garnish with 2 half eggs, ½ tablespoon sesame seeds, and a ¼ teaspoon of chili oil per bowl.
