Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups chicken stock no sodium preferred
  • 14 ounce coconut milk (1 can)
  • 2 tbsp sesame paste or tahini, or nut butter of choice
  • 1-2 tbsp red curry paste depending on spice preference
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and smashed
  • 1 inch ginger peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1-2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 2 portions instant ramen cooked and drained
  • 1 bell pepper red preferred, sliced
  • 2 spinach
  • 2 wedges lime optional

Instructions

  • Bring chicken stock, coconut milk, sesame paste, red curry paste, garlic, ginger, chicken breast, and mushrooms to a simmer over medium heat until the chicken is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
    Note: if you have an instant pot, you can do this step on high pressure for 5 minutes, then quick release and follow the rest of the instructions as usual.

  • Add sliced peppers and spinach to the pot. Cook briefly until the spinach wilts. The peppers will still have some bite. Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning with fish salt, salt, or more curry paste as desired.
