This scoop-and-drop take on Vietnamese canh taught us to stop fussing over perfectly formed meatballs. Canh is a style of light, brothy soups; ours features super simple chicken meatballs paired with tender-crisp baby bok choy. We use store-bought chicken broth and infuse it with garlic and ginger, while boosting its savoriness with fish sauce. Be sure to use low-sodium broth so you can better control the seasoning.
Tip
Don’t skip the baking powder in the chicken mixture. The leavener creates a lighter, more tender texture in the cooked meatballs.
