Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 cup chopped onion
-
2 large cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
-
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
-
2 pounds bone-in chicken breasts, skin removed
-
3 cups sliced green cabbage
-
2 cups sliced shiitake or enoki mushrooms
-
2 cups julienned carrots
-
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper
-
3 cups cooked udon noodles or whole-wheat spaghetti
-
2 tablespoons white miso (see Tip)
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add ginger; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add broth and chicken. Cover, increase heat to high and bring to a simmer. Uncover and cook, turning the chicken occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part without touching bone registers 165 degrees F, 20 to 22 minutes. Skim any foam from the surface as the chicken cooks. Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board. When cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and shred.
-
Meanwhile, add cabbage, mushrooms and carrots to the pot; return to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are tender, 4 to 10 minutes. Stir in the shredded chicken, salt, pepper and noodles and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in miso.
Tips
Tip: Miso is a fermented soybean paste that adds flavor to dishes like soups and sauces. It is available in different colors; in general, the lighter the color, the milder the flavor. Look for miso alongside refrigerated tofu. It keeps in the refrigerator for at least a year.
To make ahead: Cover and refrigerate, without the noodles and miso, for up to 3 days. To serve, stir in noodles and reheat, then stir in miso.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
