Clean and Simple Chicken Soup
I heard David Chang talking about how his mom makes chicken soup. Sounded good, so I tried to do something similar to what he described. Just a simple, straightforward chicken soup. No complications, and not a lot of effort, but just as soothing and comfortable as you'd expect from chicken soup. You should feel free to improvise as well.

1 bunch scallions
2 cloves garlic

After breaking down a whole raw or rotisserie chicken, take all of the bones and toss them in a pot with garlic, ginger and scallions. Simmer for several hours. If you have an instant pot, you can do this faster. Just cook on high pressure for 1 hour and strain.

Having strained the stock, remove any meat from the bones and add it to the broth.

I like to assemble this soup as needed. Get a nice bowl and add a splash each of sesame oil and soy sauce. Pour in a few ladles of chicken broth.

Add in as much chicken, cabbage and scallions as you like.
