Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  2. 4 scallions, chopped (white and green parts separated)
  3. 1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
  4. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  5. 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  6. 2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)
  7. 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
  8. Kosher salt
  9. 1 cup chopped delicata or other winter squash
  10. 9 ounces fresh egg noodles
  11. 1 red, yellow or orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
  12. 1 5-ounce package baby spinach

Instructions

  1. Heat the sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the scallion whites, ginger and garlic; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add 5 cups water, the chicken broth, chicken breasts, teriyaki sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to medium-high; cover and bring to a simmer. Add the squash and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, covered, until the chicken is just cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and let cool slightly, then shred.
  3. Return the soup to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the noodles and bell pepper and cook until the noodles are just tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach and shredded chicken. Divide among bowls and top with the scallion greens.
