This healthy Coconut Soup was inspired after a trip to Yeh Ting ( 椰庭 ), a Chinese restaurant specializing in Hainanese cuisine. Their signature dish is the Coconut with Chicken Soup Pot using fresh coconut water and coconut meat.
The broth has a mild sweet flavour and is extremely refreshing unlike the usual Steamboat, which makes you keep wanting to drink more. Hence, I came up with my very own version of Coconut Soup with Chicken and Goji Berries Recipe ( 清甜椰子鸡汤 ) which requires only 3 ingredients. Try cooking it and see if you like it as much!
Ingredients:
1 Young Coconut
5 Chicken Drumlets or 3 Chicken Thighs
1 tbsp Wolfberries aka Goji Berries
500ml Water
Method:
- Remove coconut water and flesh. Set aside.
- Blanch chicken drumlets and drain. Heat pot with water and add chicken. Put it to boil and then simmer for about 30 minutes.
- Add coconut water, and coconut flesh, and continue to simmer for 10 minutes. Add goji berries, and simmer for another 10 minutes.
- Serve your Refreshing Coconut Soup with Chicken and Goji Berries Recipe ( 清甜椰子鸡汤 ) piping hot.
