    If traditional chicken noodle soup is like a warm hug, this Thai chicken soup is like a long soak in a hot tub with a glass of champagne! It’s totally warming and comforting but with that extra flare you’ll only want to share with the best of friends. This soup is healthy and veggie-loaded with easy-to-find ingredients. We make it in one pot with slippery rice noodles and a smooth texture you’ll keep coming back to!

    Vibrant Ingredients

    Because I'm making this recipe in North America, I chose ingredients that are easy to find anywhere. That means it's not fully authentic but an amazing Thai-inspired American Fusion. 

     You can look forward to:

    • creamy coconut milk
    • asparagus, mushrooms, and bell pepper
    • slurpy rice noodles
    • a rich veggie broth infused with ginger, garlic, and Thai green curry paste

    Make it vegan

    Thai curry soups taste amazing with tofu! Instead of chicken, you’ll want to pan-fry cubed tofu so it's crispy and keeps its shape. Check out this similar recipe using fried tofu for detailed instructions: Thai Curry Soup with Tofu

    Description

    Amazing one-pot Thai Chicken Soup recipe with coconut milk and green curry spices. Perfect for weeknight dinners. Gluten and dairy free.


    Ingredients

    Scale

    For the chicken:

    • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
    • 1 pound chicken breast or tenders, cut into bite-sized pieces

    Spices:

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 thumb-sized piece of fresh ginger, peeled and minced
    • 3 tablespoons Green Thai Curry paste

    For the Soup:

    • 3 cups (700 mL) vegetable broth
    • 1 red bell pepper, sliced thinly and halved
    • 10 medium cremini mushrooms, quartered
    • 10-12 medium asparagus stalks, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
    • 2 Tbsp (30 ml) Gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos
    • 1 14-ounce can (400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
    • 250 grams linguine or stir-fry shaped rice noodles

    Toppings

    • fresh-squeezed lime juice or wedges
    • optional: sriracha or sambal hot sauce
    • optional: fresh basil

    Instructions

    Chicken: Add coconut oil to a large pot on medium heat. When the oil is melted and evenly coats the pan, add chicken. Cook for about 4 minutes, flipping mid-way so the outsides are mostly cooked.

    Chicken pieces mostly cooked in a large pot.

    Spices: Add garlic and ginger to the pot with the chicken. Cook, stirring on occasion until the garlic is just beginning to turn golden (2-3 minutes). Add curry paste and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.

    Chicken pieces coated in garlic, ginger, and curry paste

    Soup: Add broth, bell pepper, mushrooms, asparagus, and gluten-free soy sauce. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes or until asparagus begins to soften, then add coconut milk and rice noodles. Return to simmer for 5-7 minutes until the noodles are al dente. Remove from heat.

    Adding dry rice noodles to the pot of Thai Chicken Soup.

    Toppings: Serve warm with desired toppings.

    Final Thai Chicken soup served in two bowls with fresh basil leaves and lime wedges.

    Notes

    This post contains affiliate links to products we use and love!

    Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. The noodles often absorb the broth making it less soup-like and perfect for carrying with you to work or school!

      We tried this recipe on a hurried evening and it was very tasty!
      With a picky eater it was great to be able to start with some extra chicken, set some aside and then continue with the rest of the recipe. Its back on the menu for this week too. Thanks, Jamie, for this quick and tasty dinner.

      Our whole family loved this recipe! We couldn’t find green curry sauce, so we subbed red curry sauce. We doubled the recipe but used 4 T of red curry sauce. Everyone says this is a definite repeat meal!
