Remove skin from chicken breasts. Carefully cut meat from bones and pull
out the pieces of cartilage. Cut meat into strips and set aside. Put bones
in large saucepan. Add water, onion, bay leaf, parsley, thyme, salt, and
pepper. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook slowly, covered, 1 hour.
Strain broth into a saucepan. Combine garlic, coriander, chili powder, and
soy sauce. Stir into broth. Bring to a boil. Add chicken, shrimp, and
mushrooms. Cook slowly, covered, about 5 minutes, until the shrimp turns
pink, and the chicken is tender. Stir in scallions and fresh coriander or
parsley. Remove and discard bay leaf. Serve in bowls over or with rice.
