  • 5cm ginger root, finely grated
  • 8 boneless & skinless chicken thighs, diced
  • 1L chicken stock or bone broth

  • 4 carrots, sliced
  • ½ broccoli, broken into florets
  • 2 red capsicums, diced

Method


  • Place a large pan over a moderate heat and add the oil, garlic, ginger and chicken thighs. Stir-fry for 5 mins until the chicken looks translucent.
  • Add the broth, sea salt and shiitake mushrooms and bring to a simmer for another 5 mins.
  • Add the carrot, broccoli, capsicum and zucchini and cook for 5 more mins to slightly soften the vegetables.
