I love egg drop soup but it always leaves me feeling like I wanted more in it. My husband Alex mentioned that his family's has extra meat in it and so he came up with the following recipe. It's so super yummy and no cornstarch at all! Great recipe for lazy keto.
Cut meat off the chicken bones and set meat aside.
In a soup pot, add salt, thigh bones and livers. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn down heat to medium high and let cook for 1 hour. Keep topping up with water as needed to keep bones and livers covered in water.
Add ginger and pepper and let cook for an additional hour, again keeping it topped up with water as needed.
While broth is cooking, bake chicken pieces in oven with butter. Bake at 180 degrees C (350 degrees F) for 20 minutes. Stir chicken at 10 min mark to ensure cooking on both sides.
When broth is done, remove livers and chicken bones. Add to broth, chicken pieces and melted butter. Add 1 teaspoon of Xantham Gum. Bring broth to a gentle simmer on low to medium heat. Taste broth and add additional seasoning as needed to taste.
In a small bowl, beat eggs and 1/4 teaspoon of Xanthan Gum. Using a tablespoon slowly drizzle egg mix into the broth while gently stirring the broth with a chopstick or similar shaped implement. This will give the eggs that lovely string shape instead of clumps. Continue until all the egg mix is added to the broth. Add green onions.
Serve hot.
This does not refrigerate or freeze well. Best served fresh.
