Ingredients
- 8 cups Water
- 1lb Chicken Thighs
- 4 Cloves Crushed Garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp erythritol
- 8 oz cauliflower rice konjac noodles
- 2 cups Bean Sprouts
- 1 cup Mint
- 1 Lime
- 1 Red Chilli
Instructions
- Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until it shimmers, about 2 minutes
- Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant and lightly golden, about 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning
- Add the chicken pieces and cook until they turn opaque on all sides, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally
- Pour in the 8 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat, which should take about 8 minutes
- Reduce the heat to low, stir in the fish sauce, salt, and erythritol, and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes to develop the flavors
- While the broth simmers, cook the cauliflower rice konjac noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking
