    List of Ingredients




    1 oz dried shiitake mushrooms, rinsed in cold water
    1 tbsp vegetable oil
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
    4 cups reduced-sodium canned chicken broth
    3 tbsps soy sauce
    1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breasts
    1 small head (12 ozs) bok choy, white stems separated from leaves, thinly sliced
    1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
    3 tbsps rice vinegar
    2 tsps toasted-sesame oil
    2 tbsps cornstarch, dissolved in 1/4 cup water

    Place mushrooms in a small bowl; add 2 cups warm water. Let soak until
    softened, about 30 minutes. Strain liquid through a sieve lined with a paper
    towel or coffee filter; reserve.

    With a paring knife, remove stems; discard. Thinly slice caps.

    In a large stockpot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Cook garlic and
    red pepper flakes, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add
    mushrooms; cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add broth,
    soy sauce, reserved liquid and 1 cup water; bring to a boil.

    Add chicken; reduce to a simmer; cover; cook until chicken is cooked
    through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken; let cool, then shred meat.

    Add bok choy stems and bell pepper to pot; cook until tender, about 2
    minutes. Stir in vinegar, sesame oil and cornstarch. Bring to a boil; cook 1
    minute.

    Stir in bok choy greens. Ladle into bowls and top with shredded chicken.
