Delicious and quick soup to make. Didn't add fish sauce b/c never have on hand. Had leftover coconut milk from another Thai recipe and worked great when I halved the recipe to make 2 servings. I already had diced cooked chicken, which was a time saver.

Mmm... I doubled the recipe, omitted the chicken breast and used a bag of Trader Joe's Chicken Potstickers instead and added 2 tbsp of red curry paste because my hubby and I like some heat. Sooo tasty!

WOW!!! this recipe exceeded my expectations!!! so easy, so fresh, this is my new FAVORITE soup. I used the chicken broth instead of water as others suggested. Everything else the same!!! So thankful I came upon this one :) You will not be dissapointed!

absolutely delightful and very easy to make! I would recommend marinating the chicken in coconut milk for at least an hour before cooking, and definitely add noodles. They're just delectable with the broth!

I would give this 4.5 stars if I could. It was really good.. ALMOST as good as my fav thai restaurant. I probably added 4x the amount of green onions and I in tofu instead of chicken to make it vegetarian. oh my god it was yummy.

I love how fast this is - so tasty and ready in 15 minutes! I love the bite of the lime juice, so next time I will double the amount.

Excellent recipe after 'tweaking' a bit - instead of water, I used Asian soy ginger broth which I believe added a needed kick, and low fat coconut milk. This is not a spicy Thai soup, but still is very flavorful and super easy. Will definitely make again.

I found this soup to be quite bland. I tried adding red chiles and extra fish sauce to spice it up, when that didn't work I threw in heaps of garlic and fresh basil--still didn't have much flavor. I also added onions to the vegetable stip stage. Maybe I did something wrong, but I wouldn't recommend this recipe as is.

This is something I would make again. I think it would compliment any Asian dinner. I subbed chicken broth for the water, but I think it may have taken away from some of the coconut flavor. I also left out the fish sauce as I don't like fish sauce. Next time I will also dice the chicken because long strips were hard to eat in a soup. Other than that I think the recipe is great.

Really excellent! I even messed up and used an extra cup of water by mistake, and it was still wonderful. Thanks for the recipe!

We love this soup! I've made it twice now and it was perfect each time. I followed the advice of the other reviewers and substituted chicken broth for the water and added some fresh garlic. Delicious!
