Here’s another great soup recipe!

Clear Onion Soup is a light, but delicious soup. The ingredients are simple and easy to find:

Chicken Broth (can use beef broth as well, or a combination of both. You can also use vegetable broth if you’d like to keep it meat free

Onion

Carrot, Celery, Garlic and Ginger (for amazing depth of flavor)

Mushrooms and Scallions (for garnish)

Toasted Sesame Oil (for that unmistakable Asian flavor )

Coconut Aminos (or Soy Sauce) and Sriracha (optional-for boosting the clear soup to epic flavor proportions)

Directions

Roughly chop the onions, carrots and celery (no need to peel the carrots).

Slice the ginger and garlic into rounds in order to expose more surface area and unleash the most of its flavor.

Slightly caramelize the onion in a bit of regular oil in order to unlock their full deliciousness., about 10 minutes.

Add the carrots, celery, garlic, ginger, and toasted sesame oil. Pour in the chicken broth and salt to taste. Cover and heat on medium heat until the cover turns and the water seal is formed. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.

Using the steamer,strain all the solid particles out of the soup. Garnish with fresh sliced scallions, very thinly sliced button mushrooms and serve it up!

You can also add a splash of soy sauce (or coconut aminos if you’re on the Whole 30 or Paleo diet), as well as a little squirt of siracha.
