This is a comfort food upgrade packed with nutrients and flavor - and it only requires cleaning one pot and no chopping. While this recipe features four steps to enhance flavor and texture, it can be simplified by adding all the ingredients in the pan and letting it simmer over medium heat. Cut down on dishes by using kitchen shears to “chop” the scallion.
