Have you ever tried throwing any ingredients you see in the kitchen in a pot and just boil it until they’re cook? That’s what I have for my packed lunch today. I cooked chicken and cabbage soup last night for today’s lunch. We only have chicken, pork, ground beef, different varieties of frozen fishes in the fridge and a cabbage. And the only acceptable match I can find for my cabbage is chicken BECAUSE I am cutting down on pork :-(
So I just placed some chicken thighs and ½ head of the cabbage, some garlic and onion, then water and viola I have my chicken & cabbage soup (nilagang manok in Filipino) and it is tasty despite putting a very little amount of salt.
This one is healthy you know. Check the nutritional values that follows after the recipe:
Ingredients:
Chicken thighs (skin on) – 4 pcs (around 500-600 grams)
Cabbage (around 300 g.) - ½ head and sliced into 6
Onion, diced – 1 medium
Garlic – 5 cloves
Peppercorn
Salt – 1/5 tsp
RiceWash– twice the volume of the chicken
Cooking Procedure:
Boil all ingredients except the cabbage. When the chicken is done, add the cabbage and boil for a minute then turn-off the fire.
Made 4 servings.
Estimated Nutritional content per serving based on ingredients used.
Calories : 287 kcal Cholesterol : 94 mg.
Protein : 16.5 g Sodium : 173.6 mg.
Reminder: Most of the sodium is found in the soup so don’t try to sip / swallow all the soup.
