I’m always on a quest for creating the next fantastically delicious soup to tantalize the taste buds of my family and myself. Just the other day during my soup quest I stumbled upon the idea (from Delish.com) of using organic coconut milk in a soup. Let me tell you I’m so glad that I stumbled up this idea. I may have just created one of the tastiest soups that you can imagine.
Just think about the flavors of coconut wrapped up with curry, chicken and other spices. There is only one word that comes to my mind and that is YUMMY! Or maybe I should say Yummy in my Tummy. While I was concocting this soup and it was simmering on the stove I noticed that my husband and son mysteriously appeared. They started hovering around the kitchen and acting all innocent. I could tell they were summoned by the wonderful aromas emanating from the soup pot. When it comes to delicious aromas this soup was kicking it. If I would have opened up our front windows I’m sure the smells would have attracted our neighbors as well.
Needless to say when it was ready to eat we were all very pleased with the results. This coconut-curry-chicken soup is now in the top 3 of my all-time favorite soups. Why don’t you give it a try and tell me what you think?
Preparation – 10-15 min. Cook time about 45 min. Very easy recipe.
Lime wedges, cilantro and green onions, for serving
Preparation method
1. In a large pot, over medium heat, heat coconut oil. Add onion, carrots, celery, bell pepper and garlic and cook until tender (about 10 minutes). Add curry powder, cayenne and salt and stir until well mixed.
2. Add the mixture to chicken broth, pour over coconut milk and bring to simmer. Add shredded chicken, cilantro and then at the very end add ramen noodles and cool until al dente (no more than 3 minutes)
3. Garnish with green onions and serve with lime. Delicious!

This sounds delicious! I’ll try it adding turmeric to make it even more of a healthy treat.
I had to take time to tell you how delicious this chicken soup was tonight! I absolutely loved the combo of ingredients you put together. The ramen noodles in this dish was a great idea! The flavors that you have matched up in this soup are extremely good. It’s easy to make, quick and definitely a keeper!
One of my favorite touches is the wedges of lime added at the end. Since winter will be here before we know it, this soup will be the perfect soup to come home to at night and to have on hand should the flu virus dare to invade! 🙂
I guess you can tell I am a big fan of this soup. Thank you for this recipe.
