Healthy Thai Coconut Chicken Soup

Let's make something lovely.

1. 01

   Prepare the Soup Base:

2. 02

   In a large wok or pot, heat 300 ml of water and 200 ml of light coconut milk over medium heat until it starts to gently boil.

3. 03

   Add fresh ginger slices and lime zest to the pot. This will act as the flavor base for the soup.

4. 04

   Add Seasonings:

5. 05

   Once the soup base is boiling, stir in low-sodium soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, salt, and brown sugar (or honey). Stir well until the sugar dissolves completely.

6. 06

   Add Chicken and Mushrooms:

7. 07

   Add the sliced chicken and mushrooms to the boiling broth. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through, and the mushrooms are softened.

8. 08

   Add Fresh Greens and Garnish:

9. 09

   Stir in fresh spinach (if using), green onions, and cilantro. Let the spinach wilt for about 1 minute, then remove the pot from the heat.

10. 10

    Finish with a splash of lime juice for a tangy twist and serve the soup immediately.
