A delightful and aromatic Thai-inspired soup with a creamy coconut base and tender chicken.
In a large saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk and chicken broth until smooth.
Whisking the liquids together ensures a smooth and creamy base.
Add the kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, and ginger to the saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer.
Crush the lemongrass slightly to release its aromatic oils.
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and add them to the simmering soup. Cook until the chicken is tender.
Cutting the chicken into thin strips ensures it cooks quickly and evenly.
Stir in the green onions, fish sauce, and lime juice. Heat through for a few minutes.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more fish sauce or lime juice if needed.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
Serve with a side of steamed rice for a complete meal.
