Servings: persons

2 teaspoons sesame oil, divided
1 (4 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped, or to taste
3 quarts chicken broth
1 large red onion, diced
2 cups sliced carrots
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
6 limes, juiced, divided
1 (9 ounce) package udon noodles
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
1 leek, cut into matchstick-size pieces
1 green onion, finely chopped

1
Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a large pot over low heat; cook and stir ginger in the hot oil for 10 minutes. Pour chicken broth over ginger, cover pot, and simmer for 30 minutes.
2
Stir onion and carrots into broth and simmer until carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Gradually add curry powder, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to broth; stir in jalapeno pepper and half the lime juice. Simmer broth over low heat, stirring about every 15 minutes, until flavors have blended, about 1 hour.
3
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Drop udon in a few noodles at a time and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes; drain.
4
Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken in the hot oil until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken to broth and stir leek and green onion into broth; simmer for 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove pot from heat.
5
Portion udon noodles into each serving bowl; ladle broth over noodles. Add remaining lime juice to each serving.
