Ingredients | Thai Spicy Mushroom Soup

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 ½ pounds chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces

¼ cup chopped white onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 (13.5 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk

⅔ cup white sugar

½ cup diced jarred jalapeno peppers (such as Mt. Olive®)

¼ cup rice vinegar

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground turmeric

¼ cup chopped Thai basil

Directions

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute chicken, onion, and garlic in the hot oil until chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes.

Combine coconut milk, sugar, diced jalapenos, rice vinegar, salt, and turmeric in a bowl.

Reduce heat to medium and pour coconut mixture into the pan with the chicken. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in basil.

You can substitute Italian basil for Thai basil.
