Chicken Noodle Soup

I was craving for some noodle soup so decided to make something from what I have in my fridge and freezer. I would say it is a combination of Filipino Chicken Mami and Vietnamese Pho. It turned out surprisingly good using clear noodles. You can use sotanghon or mami noodles if clear noodles is not available. Healthy recipe below.

Ingredients

1 lb. fresh rice stick noodles
1 Cornish game hen or 2 lbs. chicken, any cut
1/2 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 lb. fish cake, sliced (optional)
3-4 cloves whole garlic
1 large onion, cut into 4
1/2 lb. baby bok choy
3 stem celery, cut into 4
chopped green onion for garnishing
cilantro for garnishing
2 tablespoon fish sauce
salt and ground black pepper to taste
