This Hawaiian-style chicken long rice soup has been a family favorite for many generations. The leftovers are great, and it freezes well. Even my Texas man loves it!

Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
3 (32 ounce) cartons low-sodium chicken broth
3 pounds chicken leg quarters
1 tablespoon Hawaiian sea salt
1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, sliced
1 (8 ounce) package uncooked bean threads (cellophane noodles)
1 large Maui sweet onion, cubed
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1 small head bok choy, chopped
Directions
Bring chicken broth, chicken, salt, and ginger to a boil in a large pot over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken tender and no longer pink, about 35 minutes. Remove chicken; strain broth into a new pot. Discard remaining solids.
Meanwhile, place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside until noodles softened, about 30 minutes.
Stir onion into broth; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Meanwhile, remove skin and bones from chicken; discard. Roughly chop chicken meat.
After noodles sat 30 minutes, stir noodles, chicken, green onion, and bok choy into broth; simmer until noodles tender.
