The Why and How for this Thai Yellow Curry Chicken Soup recipe development:
So a couple years back I was pregnant, and sick, and unable to keep just about anything down. The one thing that seemed to stay okay in my stomach was the Yellow Curry from our local Thai shop. (Weird right?!). Unfortunately, One of our friends found a friendly bug in their food from said Thai shop and I was unable to stomach going back! Yuck. Seriously y’all, I can’t believe some of the stories I’ve heard of people finding things in their food. Share your “crazy things you’ve found in your food” stories in the comments below! Haha!
I digress… Back to the yellow chicken curry soup. So after we banished ourselves from that restaurant, I went back to not being able to eat again. Sadness! However, I had a bottle of Trader Joe’s Thai Yellow Curry sauce; so I figured out how to make Thai Yellow Chicken Curry Soup at home (Y’all it is shockingly fast and easy to make! AND it tastes soooo good, even without pregnancy hormones!), and we’ve been eating it ever since.
Things you ought to know:
Y’all this Thai Chicken Curry Soup recipe is one of those One Pot wonders! However, I like to dirty up a second pot and boil some rice noodles usually too. My husband prefers this yellow chicken curry served over regular rice though. So that one is just a preference thing.
*Be aware, Rice noodles are kind of pricey online. However, I purchase them from my local Walmart for less than two bucks a box. SO in actuality they are totally worth it!
*DO NOT cook the rice noodles right into the soup because they will turn to mush without a cold water rinse when they reach their desired al dente.
*The cilantro is totally optional! My kids LOVE this soup, but if I add the cilantro to their bowls, they wont touch it.
Try this delicious recipe out when you need a quick meal option one night or a pick me up or a warm me up… You won’t be disappointed!
