Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp Avocado oil
- 1-2 Cubed Chicken breasts
- 1 C Onion diced, about 1 whole onion
- 1 C Carrots diced, about 2 carrots diced
- 3 tsp Garlic minced, about 3 large cloves
- 2 tsp Ginger about ½ peeled diced ginger
- 2 tsp Red Curry Paste
- ½ tsp Turmeric
- ¼ tsp Pepper
- ½ tsp Salt
- 1 C Bell Pepper diced, about ½ large bell pepper
- 1½ C Chicken Bone Broth
- ½ pkg Brown Pad Thai Rice Noodles about 2 Cups cooked rice noodles or glass noodles
- 1 can Reduced-Fat Coconut Milk full fat coconut milk is okay too
- Cilantro optional
- Lime Wedges optional
Instructions
- In a large pot or dutch oven (4 Qt is big enough) season the cubed chicken breasts with salt and pepper to your liking (I usually do garlic salt and pepper), then sauté until seared. Once the outsides have started to brown, but may not be fully cooked in the middle, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- Add little more avocado oil to the pan and sauté the chopped onion, carrots, red bell pepper, garlic, and ginger. After 5 minutes when onions start to soften add the chicken back into the pot and then add the red curry paste, turmeric, and some salt, and pepper to taste.
- After 2-3 minutes with the spices add the chicken broth. Let the chicken and veggies simmer in the chicken broth for about 15 min until the chicken becomes soft to touch and almost shredded.
- Next, add the brown rice pad Thai noodles (or your noodles of choice). Cook as directed on the package, letting the noodles soak up some of the chicken stock for about 3-5 minutes.
- Just before the noodles are “al dente” add the reduced-fat coconut milk (be sure to shake the can and scrape any milk solids that stick in the can, this gives your soup the creaminess)
- Lastly garnish your bowl with fresh cilantro and squeeze of lime.
