Sukhothai Noodle Soup Recipe | เกี๋ยวเตี๋ยวสุโขทัย


  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Description

Sukhothai Noodle Soup is just like your mom’s comforting chicken noodle soup, but with an exotic Thai zing to it of Thai chili paste, lime, cilantro, green onions, and fried garlic! So so so good!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces (or thighs, whatever you prefer)
  • 1/2 pound of green beans, cut at an angle into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 pound of rice noodles of choice
  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • 2 cups of water

Sukhothai Noodle Soup Toppings

  • 12 limes, sliced into quarters
  • 4 green onion stalks, chopped to 1/4 in.-ish pieces
  • 1 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
  • 1/3 c. chopped peanuts
  • 12 tsp per serving bowl crispy fried garlic, to taste
  • 12 tsp per serving bowl Thai chili paste, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp-2 tsp fish sauce, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp-2 tsp sugar, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp-2 tsp Thai chili flakes, to taste

Instructions

  1. Add the chicken broth and water to a large pot and bring to a boil.
  2. Add the chicken, and lower the broth to a simmer. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, and then leave the broth on low to keep it warm while prepping the rest of ingredients.
  3. While the chicken simmers, make rice noodles according to package directions.
  4. Boil water in a medium pot for the green beans.
  5. Blanch the green beans in the boiling water until bright and crispy, before they get mushy, for about 2-3 minutes. Drain.
  6. Now the fun part. Add about a teaspoon or so of chili paste to your empty serving bowls. Then put in the green beans. Then the noodles, and the chicken and broth and stir until the chili paste is combined.
  7. For the toppings, add to your taste. I add a swirl of fish sauce, some sugar, a few taps of chili flakes, a few sprinkles of peanuts, a clump of cilantro and green onions, and a spoonful of fried garlic.
  8. Enjoy, and let the soothing comfort begin!

Notes

Rice noodles cook very fast, so be sure to read the package, and make them accordingly, so they don’t get too done.
