1 lb skinless boneless chicken breasts |
2 oz soba noodles or whole wheat spaghetti |
2 tsp toasted sesame oil |
2 sm trimmed leeks thinly sliced |
1 lrg carrot thinly sliced |
1 x rib celery with leaves thinly sliced |
6 cup low sodium chicken broth |
3 tbl soy sauce |
4 lrg cloves garlic minced |
1 1/2 tbl peeled fresh ginger root |

1. Steam chicken until just cooked, about 12 minutes. When cool enough to handle, tear into bite sized shreds; set aside. Boil soba according to package directions, until al dente. Drain; set aside. Heat sesame oil in a soup pot over medium high heat. Add leeks, carrots, and celery; saute for five minutes. Add chicken broth, soy sauce, garlic and ginger. Bring just to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in chicken, soba, and fresh cilantro. Make sure to cook until soup is hot throughout.
2. Speed Variation: Slice the leek, carrot and celery in a Cuisinart with 2mm blade. Rinse well. Place in a nonstick 2quart pan and soften the vegetables over medium heat.

Cut the chicken into bite-sized slivers and add to the soup. Bring just to a boil. Reduce heat. Add soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil. Simmer for 10 minutes. Meanwhile cook noodles.
