CUCUMBER COCONUT SOUP
Steps:
- Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the chicken; return to a simmer, and reduce heat. Cook, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate, reserving the stock, and let cool.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion; cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapeño, and cucumbers; cook 1 minute more. Add the reserved chicken stock, and bring to a simmer; cook until the cucumbers are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool slightly.
- Working in batches, transfer the cucumber mixture to a blender or food processor, and puree until smooth. Add the coconut milk and cilantro to the last batch, pureeing until cilantro is very finely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl, and cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until completely cool. Stir in the lime juice, and season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, shred the chicken into bite-size pieces. Ladle the soup into bowls; top each with chicken, and garnish with some cilantro leaves.
