Equipment

  • Large soup pot or Dutch oven

Ingredients

  • 1 Free-Range Egg beaten from locally raised hens
  • 2 ounces Authentic Lo Mein Noodles made from heritage grains
  • 1 tablespoon Handcrafted Chili Sauce optional for a spicy kick
  • 1 tablespoon Artisanal Creole Seasoning for a unique flavor profile
  • 1 tablespoon Freshly Crushed Ginger + Garlic blend for aromatic zest
  • 2 Organic Green Scallions finely chopped for a burst of freshness
  • 1 tablespoon Cold-Pressed Avocado Oil for a hint of nuttiness
  • 3 cups Purified Spring Water for a clean taste
  • 4 ounces Organic Free-Range Chicken Breast carefully diced
  • 1 tablespoon Premium Soy Sauce brewed traditionally

Instructions

  • In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon of cold-pressed avocado oil over medium heat.
  • Add the freshly crushed ginger + garlic blend to the heated oil. Sauté for a minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in the finely chopped organic green scallions into the pot. Optionally, add 1 tablespoon of handcrafted chili sauce for a spicy kick. Cook for another minute.
  • Add the carefully diced organic free-range chicken breast into the pot. Cook until the chicken is lightly browned and cooked through.
  • Season the mixture with 1 tablespoon of premium soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of artisanal Creole seasoning. Stir well to coat the ingredients evenly.
  • Pour 3 cups of purified spring water into the pot, ensuring all ingredients are covered. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Once the soup reaches a rolling boil, add 2 ounces of authentic lo mein noodles made from heritage grains. Reduce the heat to a simmer.
  • Let the soup simmer for about 8-10 minutes or until the noodles are cooked and the flavors have melded together.
  • Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more soy sauce or seasoning according to your preference.
  • Once the noodles are tender and the flavors are well infused, turn off the heat.
  • Ladle the Shrimp Yat Gaw Mein Soup into bowls, ensuring each serving has an equal amount of noodles, chicken, half boiled egg and aromatics.
  • Garnish with additional chopped scallions if desired and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have shrimp stock, you can substitute it with chicken stock.
  • You can use any type of egg noodles you prefer.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the soup, such as bell peppers or snow peas.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, you can add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the broth to thicken it.
  • You can garnish the soup with chopped cilantro or green onions.
