Ingredients

  • 3 cans (14 1/2 oz. each) fat-skimmed chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh ginger
  • 12 ounces boned, skinned salmon fillet, rinsed and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 cups lightly packed rinsed, stemmed spinach leaves (about 2 oz.)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten to blend
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. In a 4- to 5-quart pan over high heat, bring broth to a boil. Add ginger, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover, and cook to flavor broth, about 10 minutes. Remove ginger chunks with a slotted spoon or a fine strainer.
  2. Add salmon and simmer until chunks are opaque but still moist-looking in the center (cut to test), about 5 minutes. Add spinach and stir just until wilted.
  3. Increase heat to bring broth back to a boil and slowly stir in eggs. Stir in green onions and add salt and pepper to taste. Ladle soup into bowls immediately.
