To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place some boneless, skinless chicken breasts on it.
Brush the chicken with the avocado oil, and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
Bake the chicken until it is cooked through, about 30-40 minutes or until it reads 165 degrees (f) with a meat thermometer.
When the chicken is almost done baking, heat the coconut oil in a Dutch oven or other large soup pot, over medium heat. Add in minced garlic and freshly grated ginger and cook for just a minute, until it is fragrant.
Add in Thai red curry paste, and cook for one minute.
Pour in chicken broth, and stir it together. Heat the broth to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
When your chicken is finished baking, carefully shred it on a cutting board.
Add the shredded chicken to the soup, along with the coconut aminos, sriracha, water chestnuts, cilantro and coconut sugar. Cook it together for 2-3 minutes.
Add in coconut milk and the juice of a lime. Heat the soup through.
Serve the soup with additional lime wedges for garnish. (optional)
Enjoy.
Recipe Tips:
The chicken can be cooked ahead of time, to make this a very quick meal for a busy day.
Another short cut is to use rotisserie chicken from your grocery store.
Chicken thighs can be used instead of chicken breasts if you wish.
Try adding bamboo shoots to this as well.
