Fragrant, spicy, and absolutely delicious Thai chicken soup. I’ve eaten a bit of Thai, and I think this comes very close. Add noodles if you like with the cilantro.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons peanut oil
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root
- ¼ cup chopped lemon grass
- 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves – cut into thin strips
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups bok choy, shredded
- 4 cups water
- 1 (10 ounce) can coconut milk
- ¼ cup fish sauce
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat peanut oil. Stir in garlic, ginger, lemon grass, red pepper, coriander and cumin and cook until fragrant, 2 minutes. Stir in chicken and onion and cook, stirring, until chicken is white and onion is translucent, 5 minutes. Stir in bok choy and cook until it begins to wilt, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in water, coconut milk, fish sauce and cilantro. Simmer until chicken is thoroughly cooked and flavors are well blended, 30 minutes.
