Creating a warm bowl of Thai Curry Chicken Soup is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until melted.
2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
3. Cook the Chicken: Stir in the cubed chicken breast and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Add Curry Paste: Stir in the red Thai curry paste until the chicken is coated and fragrant, cooking it for another 1-2 minutes.
