I had so much fun making this dish! I love coming up with creative ways to use flavors hanging around the house. Did you know that tea makes such a great addition to a dish! I used a Steeped Tea called Marsala Chai to infuse just the right flavors into my poaching broth. Seriously, my mouth is watering just thinking about it right now!! If you haven't tried adding unexpected items to your dishes then get on it! I promise, you will not be disappointed!! Not to mention, you can skip the noodles to make this Keto & Whole30 approved!
