Warm Tummy Soft Braised Daikon & Chicken

Peel the daikon radish and carrot. Cut them into small, bite-sized cubes for toddlers, or larger, thick wedges if serving as a finger food for younger babies.

In a medium saucepan, combine the water or broth, the slice of fresh ginger, the chopped daikon, carrot, and chicken pieces. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. The vegetables should become completely fork-tender and the chicken fully cooked.

Turn off the heat and remove the ginger slice. Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce and sesame oil to add a comforting, mild flavor.

For babies, finely shred the chicken and mash the vegetables to a safe consistency. For toddlers, serve the soft cubes and chicken pieces alongside warm rice.
