Home made chicken broth for kao piak sen is quite simple to make. The secret is to use a stewing chicken. The meat from a stewing chicken is usually tougher, but perfect for kao piak sen soup. First wash the chicken and put it in a pot. Fill the pot so that it covers the chicken. Cover the pot and add a few pieces of cilantro stem. Bring the pot to a boil, add some knorr chicken stock powder, thin soy sauce and lower the heat to a simmer. The broth is done when the chicken becomes tender and the meat easily falls from the bones. Remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool. Then shred the chicken from the bones. Discard the bones and serve the chicken meat with the kao piak sen.
