THAI COCONUT CHICKEN SOUP

Steps:

• For the chicken stock: Place the chicken and vegetables in a large stockpot over medium heat. Pour in only enough cold water to cover (about 3 quarts); too much will make the broth taste weak. Toss in the thyme, bay leaves, and peppercorns, and allow it to slowly come to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, partially covered, until the chicken is done. As it cooks, skim any impurities that rise to the surface; add a little more water if necessary to keep the chicken covered while simmering.
• Carefully remove the chicken to a cutting board. When its cool enough to handle, discard the skin and bones; hand-shred the meat into a storage container.
• Carefully strain the stock through a fine sieve into another pot to remove the vegetable solids. Use the stock immediately or if you plan on storing it, place the pot in a sink full of ice water and stir to cool down the stock. Cover and refrigerate for up to one week or freeze. Makes: 2 quarts
• For the soup: Bring 4 cups of stock to a boil over medium heat in a soup pot. Add the lime leaves, chiles, garlic, ginger and lemongrass. Lower the heat to medium-low; cover the pot and gently simmer to let the spices infuse the broth, about 10 minutes.
• Uncover the pot and stir in the chicken, coconut milk, mushrooms, fish sauce, sugar and lime juice. Simmer to heat the chicken through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into a soup tureen or individual serving bowls. Garnish with the cilantro. Be careful to avoid chewing the lemongrass, ginger or lime leaves.

THAI CHICKEN-COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium stockpot over high heat, combine the chicken stock, fish sauce, lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. The aromatic broth may be strained at this point, if desired. (The pieces of galangal, the lemongrass, and lime leaves are traditionally left in, although not eaten. This is just a matter of personal preference.)
• Increase the heat to high, add the coconut milk, Sriracha, and chicken, and return to a boil. Lower the heat once again and simmer until the chicken is opaque and cooked thoroughly, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and add the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish each serving with a friendly helping of cilantro.
• Galangal (kha in Thai) is a root closely related to ginger, differing in that its flavor carries a touch more pungency than ginger. It also brings a blend of peppery, earthy undertones to the broth that ginger just can't provide. While ginger is the closest substitute-and it will certainly make for a delectable soup regardless-if fresh galangal is available in your area, give it a go!
