- In a stock pot, heat the oil, then sauté the onion, celery, carrots, and jalapeño for 10 minutes, or until almost tender
- Pour the ginger mixture into a sieve, and press all that spicy juice into the stock pot, discarding the solids once they’ve been pressed nearly dry
- Add the cooked chicken, stock and wine, and simmer for 10 minutes
