Recipe Summary Chicken In Lemongrass Coconut Broth

I made this soup after trying it at a Thai noodle house in my area. I just kept playing around with ingredients until I got something similar. I have the seasonings adjusted to my liking, however there is an adjustment guide in the footnotes if you would like a slightly different flavor. This soup is also good with rice or pasta, but ramen seems to be the favorite. You can use any flavor of ramen noodles.

1 fresh lemongrass stalk, outer leaves removed

2 quarts chicken stock

½ cup minced fresh ginger, divided

4 fresh kaffir lime leaves

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon Sriracha chile sauce

1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch strips

2 (14 ounce) cans coconut milk

3 tablespoons brown sugar

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 tablespoon fish sauce

6 (3 ounce) packages ramen noodles (exclude seasoning packets)

2 large carrots, shredded

1 cup chopped tomatoes

Directions

Mince the lower 2/3 of lemongrass stalk. Bruise the remaining upper portion of lemongrass stalk by hitting it with the back of a knife.

Pour chicken stock into a large pot; add minced lemongrass, bruised lemongrass stalk, 1/2 the ginger, lime leaves, garlic, and Sriracha sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer.

Place cilantro bundle in the broth and simmer for 2 minutes. Add coconut milk, remaining ginger, brown sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce. Remove cilantro bundle using a slotted spoon; discard. Simmer broth, 5 to 10 minutes.

Fill a large pot with water and bring to a rolling boil. Add ramen and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Drain and portion noodles into serving bowls.

Mix carrots, tomatoes, and green onions into broth. Ladle broth over noodles; garnish with cilantro.
