1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

200g rice noodles

2 tablespoons red curry paste

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 teaspoon sugar

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

3 green onions, sliced

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by slicing the chicken thighs, mushrooms, bell pepper, and green onions. Set them aside.

    Cook the Noodles: In a large pot, cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

      Sauté the Chicken: In the same pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set it aside.

        Make the Broth: In the same pot, add the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Then, pour in the chicken broth and coconut milk. Stir to combine.

          Add Vegetables: Bring the broth to a gentle simmer. Add sliced mushrooms, red bell pepper, fish sauce, lime juice, and sugar. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

            Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the pot. Taste the broth and adjust for salt and pepper. If you prefer a spicier soup, add a bit more red curry paste.

              Serve the Soup: To serve, place a portion of noodles in a bowl, ladle the hot soup over them, and garnish with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro.

                Add Lime: Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the soup.
