Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 carrots peeled and finely chopped – except for a few matchsticks for garnish
  • 1/2 onion chopped finely
  • 1 red bell pepper chopped finely – except for a few thinly sliced pieces for garnish
  • 1 cup cooked chicken meat chopped
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste (if you like it less spicy just use 1 tablespoon)
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 13.5 ozcan Asian coconut milk or cream (unsweetened)
  • 21 ounces chicken broth (roughly 1.5 cans - I like Swansons brand)
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons fish sauce and a few sprigs of cilantro

Instructions

  1. In a medium sauce pan, heat olive oil on medium heat and cook chopped onions, carrots, and red bell pepper for approximately 5 minutes. Add curry paste, brown sugar, chicken, rice, and fish sauce stirring and sauteing everything until curry paste is completely incorporated (approx. 2-3 minutes). Pour chicken broth and coconut milk into the pan and give it a good stir for a half minute. Reduce heat to medium and allow the soup to cook for 15-20 minutes. Serve with a spoonful of coconut milk added on top with a few matchstick carrots and a slice of red bell pepper for garnish. Enjoy!
