GRILLED CHICKEN COCONUT CURRY SOUP — Grilling the chicken for this coconut milk based soup adds great flavor. Garnished with fresh cilantro, cashews and pomegranate seeds, it’s a perfect way to welcome fall.
I really love coconut curry soup, and with the grilled chicken, cashews and pomegranates, this Grilled Chicken Coconut Curry Soup is extra special and delicious!
This light, creamy soup is the perfect way to welcome fall. It’s still got plenty of fresh, cool fruit and veggie elements, and the grilled chicken is a nod to outdoor summer cooking.
But it’s also a warm, comforting soup that really hits the spot on a chilly fall evening.
Which also means this is a perfect soup to make right up through those cool spring days. Basically, this is a soup you can enjoy almost year round.
And you should! Because it’s simple to make, and hits the spot any time of year.
If grilling the chicken isn’t an option for you, just cut into into bite-size pieces and sauté it along with the onions. Your soup will still taste amazing.
And the garnishes are, of course, optional. Fresh herbs, green onions, peanuts–they will all work in place of what’s listed in the recipe.
And don’t be afraid to add additional veggies either, like shredded carrots or sliced mushrooms. Bamboo shoots and chopped water chestnuts are also fun options.
My whole family loves this easy-to-make, Thai-inspired soup. Even my husband who doesn’t like curry! If you really want to make everyone happy, try serving all of the toppings on the side.
Soup weather is just around the corner, and you’ll definitely want this Grilled Chicken Coconut Curry Soup in your recipe collection.
