2 t. dark sesame oil
6 oz. mushrooms (your choice, I used white button), either chopped or thinly sliced
3 T. grated ginger
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
2 T. soy sauce
3 cups coarsely chopped bok choy (I diced the white part and shredded the green part)
1 cup matchstick carrots
2 T. sliced green onions
1 can bean sprouts, rinsed and drained
1/4 t. red pepper flakes
1 pound shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 T. chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about three limes)
Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Saute mushrooms and ginger until mushrooms darken and soften, about 3 - 4 minutes.
Add broth, water and soy sauce. Bring this mixture to a boil. Stir in bok choy and next four ingredients. Cover the pot and reduce heat to simmer. Add shrimp and let cook for 3 - 4 minutes. Add cilantro and lime juice just before serving.
Feel free to use Chinese (napa) cabbage if you prefer.
