Quick Notes: My local grocery store, Smith’s (a subsidiary of Kroger) sells this bomb ass soup in the deli. I love the shit. One day while I was eating my pint of soup straight out of the packaging like a sub-human, it struck me that I could just read the ingredients…. which I did. Then I fumbled through a soup recipe using those ingredients and it was far better than the shit in the package. Technically, this is Kroger’s recipe. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and lightly shredded
- 1/2 cup uncooked jasmine rice
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 3 cups coconut milk
- 1 cup water
- 6 oz green curry paste
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
- 1/4 c fish sauce (or less, to taste)
- -For Garnish
- Thai basil
- cilantro
- green onions
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, bring water to a boil. Add rice. Cook for ten minutes.
- Add chicken, chicken stock, and curry powder. Wait for this to return to a boil, and allow it to boil together for about three minutes.Â
- Mix in carrots and bell pepper. Let that cook for about three minutes before tossing in the remaining ingredients. Let the remaining ingredients simmer for another five minutes. Taste it. If it feels like it needs more red pepper or more fish sauce, this would be the opportune time to adjust those things. Â
- Serve with garnish.Â
This would make a phenomenal starter for our Shrimp Pad Thai with Spicy Peanut Sauce!
