Easily add that authentic curry flavor
Our trick for adding the depth of curry flavor to this soup without a bunch of different ingredients is to use Thai Kitchen curry paste. We’ve found it at several different grocery stores and it’s also available at Thrive Market. It has clean ingredients, no added sugar and adds so much flavor!
All the veggies are a must
The first time we tried this recipe, we made it with only chicken and mushrooms. The flavor was good, but let’s just say it was a bit “meh”. So, we decided to add eggplant and bell pepper to “fill up” this soup and make it more stew-like. Now you’ll get a mix of chicken, veggies and broth in each bite, it’s so good!
What else do you put in chicken coconut curry soup?
A few other key ingredients that really flavor this soup are lemongrass and lime. The lemongrass has a pretty thick outer stalk, so be sure to remove that and just use the inner, softer stalk for the recipe. Also, be sure to really chop it up well, you want it to form almost a paste. For the lime, you can add more or less to adjust the flavor to your liking.
