More About The Spicy Coconut Chicken Soup Recipe
This soup is made with Thai chicken, fresh vegetables, and a healthy dose of spices. The ingredients are cooked until the chicken is cooked through and then added to a rich and thick soup. The result is a delicious and hearty meal that will keep your taste buds satisfied for hours.
Toss chicken with cornstarch. In a 6-qt. stockpot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat; saute chicken until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. Remove from pot.
In same pan, saute onion, jalapeno and garlic in remaining oil over medium-high heat until onion is tender, 3-4 minutes. Stir in seasonings, chili sauce, coconut milk and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 20 minutes.
Stir in cabbage, snow peas and chicken; cook, uncovered, just until cabbage is crisp-tender and chicken is cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Serve with green onions and lime wedges.
Regular cabbage may be substituted for Chinese cabbage; cook it a bit longer to make sure it's tender.
Julienned sugar snap peas can be used in place of snow peas.
Slicing vegetables on the diagonal will give Asian dishes a more authentic look.
Adding lime juice too early will turn the snow peas and cabbage an unattractive olive green color. Instead, serve with lime wedges so the acid doesn’t have time to change the color of the vegetables.
