Easy Chicken Coconut Soup Recipes

Steps:

• For the chicken stock: Place the chicken and vegetables in a large stockpot over medium heat. Pour in only enough cold water to cover (about 3 quarts); too much will make the broth taste weak. Toss in the thyme, bay leaves, and peppercorns, and allow it to slowly come to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, partially covered, until the chicken is done. As it cooks, skim any impurities that rise to the surface; add a little more water if necessary to keep the chicken covered while simmering.
• Carefully remove the chicken to a cutting board. When its cool enough to handle, discard the skin and bones; hand-shred the meat into a storage container.
• Carefully strain the stock through a fine sieve into another pot to remove the vegetable solids. Use the stock immediately or if you plan on storing it, place the pot in a sink full of ice water and stir to cool down the stock. Cover and refrigerate for up to one week or freeze. Makes: 2 quarts
• For the soup: Bring 4 cups of stock to a boil over medium heat in a soup pot. Add the lime leaves, chiles, garlic, ginger and lemongrass. Lower the heat to medium-low; cover the pot and gently simmer to let the spices infuse the broth, about 10 minutes.
• Uncover the pot and stir in the chicken, coconut milk, mushrooms, fish sauce, sugar and lime juice. Simmer to heat the chicken through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into a soup tureen or individual serving bowls. Garnish with the cilantro. Be careful to avoid chewing the lemongrass, ginger or lime leaves.

Steps:

• Combine water and chicken in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. Remove chicken from the pot, cut off meat from bones, and dice. Strain cooking broth through a sieve and set aside.
• Heat coconut oil in a separate pot over medium heat. Add carrots, onion, and bell pepper; cook until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in cooked rice, brown sugar, curry paste, and diced chicken. Cook and stir until curry paste is completely incorporated, about 3 minutes.
• Pour in reserved chicken broth, coconut milk, and bouillon cubes. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors are well combined, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Meanwhile, heat the coconut oil in a frying pan and add the chicken. I usually cube it first and then cook it, but you can cook it first and slice it onto the soup instead.
• Once the meat is browned, add it to the soup and then add in the bean noodles. Once the noodles are ready, the soup is ready.

Steps:

• Trim the roots from the lemon grass and strip away the outer leaves. Bruise the stalks at 2-inch intervals with the blunt edge of a knife or cleaver; then, cut each crosswise into four pieces. Set aside.

• *** Notes: 1. Try not to substitute the fresh ginger or garlic for powdered or paste. This will really alter the overall taste (and not in a good way.). 2. Shake the can of coconut milk before using. Most of the coconut flavor is in the bits that settle at the bottom of the can. 3. You can add chilli powder to make this spicier. It really depends on how hot the curry powder you use is. I usually use a blend of very hot Madras curry powder and very mild Caribbean curry powder.
