Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 inch piece of ginger grated
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 cup carrots sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
