Ingredients

Scale

Soup Base

  • 3 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 1/2 cups rotisserie chicken (cooked, shredded)
  • 1/2 cup carrot (grated, about 1 medium carrot)
  • 1/2 cup snow peas (thinly sliced)
  • 3 tsp Sriracha (hot chile sauce, 2 tsp for less spice)
  • 2 tsp soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste
  • 2 inch piece ginger (whole, for simmering)

Noodles & Garnish

  • 3 ounces rice noodles (rice-flour noodles)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint (for garnish)
  • Optional garnish: fresh cilantro and green onions

Instructions

  1. Simmer the Soup Base: Combine the chicken broth, water, shredded rotisserie chicken, grated carrot, sliced snow peas, Sriracha, soy sauce, Thai red curry paste, and ginger piece in a large pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5-8 minutes until the vegetables are tender, then reduce heat to low to keep warm.
  2. Cook the Rice Noodles: Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions, usually involving soaking in hot water or boiling briefly until tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. Finish the Soup: Remove and discard the ginger piece from the pot. Stir in the fresh lime juice to brighten the flavors of the broth.
  4. Assemble and Serve: Ladle approximately 1 1/3 cups of the broth with vegetables and chicken into serving bowls. Top each bowl with a portion of cooked rice noodles. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and optionally add fresh cilantro and sliced green onions for extra flavor and color.

Notes

  • Adjust Sriracha amount to taste for desired spice level.
  • Use low sodium broth and soy sauce to control salt content.
  • Fresh herbs like cilantro and green onions complement the soup well, though optional.
  • The ginger is used to infuse flavor but is removed before serving.
  • Rice noodles can be soaked in hot water instead of boiling for a gentler cooking method.
