Curried Squash & Chicken Soup

From EatingWell: EatingWell Serves Two

Red Thai curry paste adds heat and depth of flavor to this simple soup. If you like, omit the chicken and spinach to make an even simpler first-course soup.

READER'S COMMENT:

"I doubled the % of chicken and red curry paste. Also, I cooked the chicken with onions and garlic on a separate plate and added to the soup by the end. We licked our plates! Awesome recipe! "

Thick but bland

I made the recipe as is, putting in the lower amount of curry paste, because I do not like spicy foods. So, I thought it was bland. Nice and thick, with a good amount of chicken & spinach, but on the bland side, but then again, I didn't want to add much curry paste, for fear it would be too spicy.

Best Soup I've Ever Had

Delicious, delicious, delicious. You will have to add quite a bit more curry paste and lime than it says, but just add to your taste. I agree with the previous reviewer that you should wait to add the chicken until you have the broth adjusted to your taste. Excellent. I had trouble getting myself to stop eating it. :)

Pros: rich in flavors

Excellent quick dinner

This soup has a rich, velvety texture. I agree with other reviewers who double or triple the curry & lime, and I always add a splash of Thai fish sauce as well to kick up the flavor. Taste the broth before adding the chicken and season accordingly. You can make this broth ahead of time and store it in the freezer. Thaw it, bring it up to a boil and add the spinach and chicken at mealtime. And yes, do serve it with rice.

Had some adjustments

I tripled the chicken. Used a white bean instead of spinach (I'm a little burned out on spinach). At least doubled the brown sugar and lime juice and probably quadrupled the Red Curry paste. It came out very good and still could of used more heat.
I will definitely be making this again!
