Easy Thai Chicken and Vegetable Soup Recipe
This time of year I’m looking for something easy and tasty to make up for meals. In this post I share a family favorite: Easy Thai Chicken and Vegetable Soup Recipe.
Easy Thai Chicken and Vegetable Soup Recipe
I first came across these new flavor infused broths this past winter. They are a great way to create homemade meals with many of the fresh veggies I grow or get from farmers market quick and easy. The recipe I’ve changed to fit my families approval was taken from the Swansom Thai Chicken Vegetable Soup Broth. I like to make the chicken optional because the veggies taste amazing on their own in the broth/ coconut milk soup.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup of carrots - matchstick-thin strips (organic)
- 1 large red bell pepper, cut into 2-inch matchstick-thin strips (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms
- 32 ounces (1 carton) Swanson® Thai Ginger Flavor Infused Broth
- ** Optional - 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 14 ounces (1 can) unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 lime squeezed
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- 1 . Heat the oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the carrot and pepper and cook for 5 minutes or until tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Stir in the mushrooms, if desired.
- 2 . Add the broth to the saucepan and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- 3 . Stir in the coconut milk and cook until the mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir in the lime juice and cilantro just before serving.
This soup reheats really well to if you want to make it in the morning and then serve it after a long day in the garden.

Just so you know… I’m a fan of swanson broth products not a paid spokes person. I purchased all ingredients locally and spun the recipe to my own liking!
Matchstick Carrots Organic I Presume… 😉
I love those carrots!!! I can’t wait till my new red carrots are ready for harvest – they will be amazing in recipes. Thanks for stopping by Pam!
I really want to try this. Can I assume your second ingredient in the recipe is carrots?
yes… lots of orange going on in the images Kylee! I hope you enjoy the recipe.
Your pictures rock! I only like cookbooks with pictures. Lol -and yours make it look like I could just reach in and grab some carrots! Yumm!
I’ve made this recipe a dozen times now…. I load it up with fresh veggies. Thank you for the comment Lisa!
