Ingredients & Substitutions for Low Carb Chicken Zoodle Thai Soup

1 tbsp coconut oil,: Adds a rich, slightly sweet flavor. Substitution: Olive oil or avocado oil can be used if needed.

1/2 onion, chopped: Provides a base flavor and sweetness. Substitution: Shallots or leeks can be used for a milder taste.

1 1/2 tbsp green curry paste,: Adds a spicy and aromatic kick. Substitution: Red curry paste or yellow curry paste can be used if green is unavailable, but it will change the flavor profile slightly.

1 jalapeño,, chopped: Gives a touch of heat. Substitution: A small amount of chili flakes or a milder pepper can be used if you prefer less spice.

1 lime, cut into 8 wedges: Adds a fresh, tangy flavor. Substitution: Lemon wedges can be used if lime is not available.

2 cloves garlic,, minced: Enhances the overall depth of flavor. Substitution: Garlic powder can be used in a pinch, but fresh garlic is preferred for the best flavor.

6 cups chicken bone broth,: Provides a rich, savory base. Substitution: Regular chicken broth or vegetable broth can be used, but it will be less rich in flavor.

1 (15-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk,: Creates a creamy and rich texture. Substitution: Light coconut milk or heavy cream can be used, though it will alter the richness and carb content.

1 pound chicken breasts, or thighs, thinly sliced against the grain: Adds protein and texture. Substitution: Tofu or another protein source can be used for a different twist.

2 tbsp fish sauce,: Adds umami and depth. Substitution: Soy sauce or tamari can be used, but it will not be paleo-friendly.

Instructions
 

  • In a large saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until melted and shimmering. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
