Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 small red Thai chiles, thinly sliced
8 sprigs cilantro
1 1/4 pounds bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
1 can (14 ounces) unsweetened coconut milk
1 can (14.5 ounces) chicken broth
A 1 1/2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
1 fresh kaffir lime leaf
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from about 5 limes), plus lime halves, for serving
3 tablespoons fish sauce, plus more for serving
Broad flat rice noodles, such as pad Thai noodles

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except noodles in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate; when cool enough to handle, shred meat from bones and discard bones. Add meat to soup.
  • Cook noodles according to package directions, then add to soup. Add more fish sauce, if desired, and serve with lime halves for squeezing.
