3/4 carton of chicken broth
1/2 cup of water
1 can of creamed corn
1 egg
2 sprigs of green onion (cut into pieces)
2 sprigs of cilantro (cut into pieces)
salt & pepper
Combine broth and water in a pot and heat to a boil. Add entire contents of creamed corn. Whisk egg in a bowl and season with a little salt. Turn heat to medium and slowly add spoonfuls of egg into pot. Whisk it into soup as soon as it comes in contact with broth (I used a fork). Add onions and parsley. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
The entire cooking process should take about 5-7 minutes.
Note: you are welcome to omit the water and add an entire carton of chicken broth. I did this to reduce the sodium content in the soup. I had a fritatta for lunch today so I wanted to go easy on the egg by adding only one but the recipe can stand for a second egg. Additionally, you can thicken the soup up with a tablespoon of cornstarch or flour with about 4 tablespoons of water or broth. Just add the mixture after the ingredients have been added to the soup.
