Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat the avocado oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges begin to brown, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and mushrooms and continue sauteing another 3 minutes, until mushrooms begin to sweat.
  • Stir in the remaining ingredients, stir well, cover the pot, and bring to a full boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 20 minutes, or until the soup is very aromatic and the chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove and discard the lemongrass before serving.
  • Serve soup in big bowls with lime wedges and cilantro.

Notes

*Replace the ginger with galangal if you can find it!
**Or 2 Tbsp lemongrass paste.
***Replace the lime zest and juice with 10 kaffir lime leaves if you can find them.
