This fragrant Thai chicken and coconut soup is a vibrant, aromatic dish that perfectly balances zesty citrus, warming ginger, and the delicate heat of red chillies. Known for its restorative qualities, this high-protein soup features tender chicken breast strips and earthy shiitake mushrooms simmered in a light, silky coconut broth. The addition of cellophane noodles makes it a satisfying meal that feels indulgent yet remarkably fresh and light on the palate.

Ideal for a quick midweek dinner or a nutritious lunch, this recipe is packed with lean protein and nutrient-dense spinach. By using light coconut milk, you achieve a creamy consistency without the heavy saturated fat content of traditional versions. Serve this homemade favourite steaming hot, garnished with plenty of fresh coriander and extra lime for a true taste of Southeast Asian comfort food.

How to make Thai Chicken-Coconut Soup

Place noodles in a bowl; add enough warm water to cover and let sit until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain.

Using tongs, transfer noodles to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm. Add mushrooms to broth; season with salt, if desired; simmer 3 minutes more. Add chicken and coconut milk and simmer, stirring, until chicken is just cooked, about 3 minutes. Stir in spinach until it begins to wilt, about 1 minute. Add chopped coriander and season with remaining 1 tablespoon fish sauce. Using tongs, divide noodles among 4 bowls. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with sprigs of coriander and slices of pepper.
