Coconut Curry Chicken Soup
- 1/4 cups Unsalted Butter
- 1 whole Large Onion, Chopped
- 2 Tablespoons Green Curry Paste
- 3 cloves Garlic (Large Cloves), Minced
- 1 Tablespoon Minced Fresh Ginger
- 1 whole Red Bell Pepper, Thinly Sliced And Cut Into 1" Long Pieces
- 8 ounces, weight Fresh Mushrooms, Very Thinly Sliced
- 8 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
- 28 ounces, fluid Coconut Milk
- 2 Tablespoons Fish Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Curry Powder
- 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoons Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- 3 cups Cooked And Shredded Chicken Breasts (Or Just Use Deli Chicken.)
- 1/4 cups Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice
- 2 whole Green Onions, Thinly Sliced
- 1/4 cups Chopped Fresh Cilantro
- Kosher Salt And Freshly Cracked Black Pepper To Taste
- 1 whole Lime, Cut Into Wedges, To Serve With Finished Soup
- Note: I highly recommend getting all the chopping, slicing, and juicing done before you fire up the stove!
- In a Dutch oven or heavy stock pot over medium heat, saute the butter and onion, just until the onion is softened. Add the curry paste and stir to combine. Then add the garlic, ginger, red bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add chicken broth, coconut milk, fish sauce, curry powder, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, and chicken. Stir to combine and cook until thoroughly warmed.
- Before serving, stir in lime juice, green onions, and cilantro. Season with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste. It may take a couple teaspoons of salt to reach good flavor, depending on the saltiness of the rest of the ingredients-just start out by adding a 1/2 teaspoon at a time, tasting after each addition.
- Serve as is, or over cooked basmati rice or pad thai rice noodles. Have lime wedges available for a fresh squeeze of juice.
