Easy Noodle Soup with Grounded ChickenEasy Noodle Soup with Grounded Chicken

Noodle soup has always been my forever comfort food.  I can eat this food every single day.  Noodle soup is a thing in Thailand; there's noodle soup carts and stand everywhere.  It's like we have McDonald's in every two miles in the U.S.  Noodle soup in Thailand is a very affordable meal; it's like the McDonald's dollar menu which is quite different from what we have in the U.S.

Making noodle soup would be fun like we used to do when I was in Thailand with my family.  I remember my dad would make a gigantic pot of the pork broth for us so that we can have the noodle soup all day long on the weekend.  It was fun and convenient to have everything ready for us to make our own noodle whenever we wanted.  That was a good memory, but to be honest, it is too much work and food for just my husband and me.

Easy & simple noodle soup

It could be hours to make the homemade noodle soup.  It's time-consuming that I do not wish to do, so I come up with an easy noodle soup recipe.  I mix low sodium chicken broth with water and season it with a soy sauce.  EASY and SIMPLE as it.

To make it healthier, I choose brown rice vermicelli.  I cook ground chicken in olive oil and seasoning soy sauce.  For something more fun I add fish balls in my noodle soup.  Hmm, yummy!!  In the end, I flavor the noodle soup with chili flake, lime juice, and fish sauce. Oh la la, it's delish!
