Chicken in Ginger Soup / Pesang Manok

It is getting cold here in the Middle east particularly UAE, So to give us a bit of warmth and comfort, I decided to make boiled chicken soup.

Chicken in ginger soup is fast and easy, you just have to boil the ingredients all together and add the vegetables at a later stage.

This soup doesn't use cooking oil, just literally boiled then simmer. The garlic cloves are bashed and unpeeled to add more flavor to the dish.

Ingredients

For the Broth :

It's a comforting dish that's filling this cold season. The broth is natural and delicious. It has a mild flavor, We usually pair it with rice and it's fantastic.

What do you think of this recipe? I would love to know.

Thank you and see you for more recipes.
