Warm noodle soup with savory broth and fresh toppings is a comforting breakfast bowl. A healthy, family-friendly recipe with protein and fresh vegetables.
Slice the chicken breast thinly and set aside. Peel and julienne the carrot. Slice green onions for topping.
In a medium pot, add low sodium chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Add garlic, soy sauce, and black pepper to the simmering broth. Stir well, maintaining a very gentle simmer to avoid boiling.
Add sliced chicken breast to the broth. Simmer for 6–8 minutes until just cooked through, checking for doneness without overcooking.
Add dried rice noodles and simmer according to package instructions (typically 4–6 minutes), stirring often to prevent sticking.
Stir in baby spinach and carrots. Cook for 2–3 minutes until spinach is wilted and carrots are slightly tender, then turn off the heat.
Drizzle sesame oil over the soup, ladle into bowls, and top each serving with sliced green onions. Serve hot.
