Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

200g rice noodles

4 cups chicken broth

1 can (400ml) coconut milk

1 tablespoon red curry paste

1 tablespoon fish sauce

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced

1 red bell pepper, julienned

1 cup spinach, washed

2 green onions, chopped

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Begin by cooking the rice noodles according to package instructions. Rinse under cold water, drain, and set aside.

    In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are cooked through. Remove from pot and let rest.

      In the same pot, add the chicken broth and coconut milk. Bring to a gentle boil.

        Stir in the red curry paste, fish sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar. Mix well until the curry paste is fully dissolved.

          Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and julienned red bell pepper to the pot. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

            While the soup is simmering, shred the cooked chicken with two forks.

              Add the shredded chicken and spinach to the pot, stirring gently until the spinach wilts.

                Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more fish sauce or lime juice if desired.

                  To serve, place a portion of the rice noodles in each bowl, ladle the hot soup over the noodles, and garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro.

                    Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
