This is a warm, homey soup that's sometimes served at 8-course Chinese wedding dinners too! It's a really easy soup to make and very yummy!

1 chicken breast (boned and skinned)
6 c stock
1 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp water
2 egg whites

Steps:

  • 1. Mince chicken meat. Season with soy sauce, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

  • 3. Bring stock to boil season with remaining salt and stir in the creamed corn. Cook for 5 minutes.
  • 4. Mix the cornstarch and water together to form a paste. Slowly pour into soup to thicken.
