Thai Red Curry Soup >> gluten + dairy-free

This Thai Red Curry Soup has it all... slippery rice noodles, bold Thai-inspired flavor, and a gorgeous color to boot! It's as delicious as it is beautiful. It's a soup-er tasty and crazy-easy meal that's perfect for weeknights and dinner parties!

Why you'll LOVE this Red Thai Curry Soup recipe:

• it makes an impressive main dish for dinner parties
• it's super flavorful
• ready in under 30 minutes
• a perfect dish for beginner and experienced cooks alike!

What to know before you start:

The process moves fast.

This is a fast-moving recipe! I recommend having your ingredients prepped and ready to go before starting the cooking process.

The toppings make it even better!

Definitely don't skip the lime, and add the green onions, basil and sambal chili sauce if you can.

The noodles will soak up most of the liquid overnight if eating leftovers.

This is definitely NOT a bad thing -- the second day it's more of a red curry with noodles because it's saucy with little extra liquid.

It's a great way to use leftover chicken or turkey!

We often make it with Thanksgiving leftovers 😉

It's good with tofu too.

Fry the tofu separately so it's crisp and add it in at the end.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 1 Tbsp (15 ml) coconut oil
• 4 servings chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 thumb-sized piece of fresh ginger, peeled and minced
• 3 Tbsp (45 ml) Red Thai Curry paste
• 3 cups (700 mL) chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced thinly and halved
• 1 can (400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
• 2 Tbsp (30 ml) Gluten-free soy sauce or coconut aminos

---

Instructions

1. Add coconut oil to a large pot on medium heat. When the oil is melted and evenly coats the pan, add the chicken. Cook for about 4 minutes, flipping mid-way so the outsides are mostly cooked.
2. Add coconut oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring on occasion, until the garlic is just beginning to turn golden (2-3 minutes). Add red curry paste and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
3. Add broth, bell pepper, gluten-free soy sauce (or alternative). Allow to simmer for 5 minutes, then add the rice noodles, bok choy, and coconut milk. Allow to return to a simmer for 5-7 minutes more, until the noodles and greens are soft.
4. Add lime wedges and optional toppings before enjoying warm!

Notes

I recommend preparing all the vegetables first. Once you begin cooking, the process moves quickly!

The toppings make it even better! Definitely don't skip the lime, and add the green onions, basil and sambal chili sauce if you can.

The noodles will soak up most of the liquid overnight if eating leftovers. This is definitely NOT a bad thing. The second day it's more of a red curry with noodles because it's saucy with little extra liquid.

It's good with tofu too. Fry the tofu separately so it's crisp and add it in at the end.
