How to Make Thai Coconut Chicken Soup
Place the chicken breasts, chicken broth, coconut milk, red curry paste, fish sauce, diced onion, minced garlic, and sliced red bell pepper into your Crockpot. Stir gently to mix everything together evenly.
Set your Crockpot to low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours. The soup is ready when the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Once the cooking time is complete, carefully remove the chicken from the soup. Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces and then return it to the Crockpot.
Before serving, pour in the freshly juiced lime to add brightness and depth of flavor. Give it a gentle stir.
Serve steaming hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
This soup can be paired with jasmine rice or rice noodles for added heartiness.
