Today, I made some Thai food at Q13 FOX News! YUUUUUMMM! My dad didn’t think he’d like the Yummy & Lime-y Coconut Chicken Soup, but he LOVED it! These recipes are so yummy, but so simple to make, kids can do it too! Give it a try!
Yummy and Lime-y Thai Coconut Chicken Soup

Check out this lovely soup. It is so good! It's creamy (but it's dairy free), it's got the tangy taste of lime, and chewy chicken. I call it Yummy and Lime-y because the lime flavor is one of the main flavors. It's DELICIOUS!

Salad
- 1 English cucumber, chopped
- 1 shallot, minced
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced small
- 2 green onions, sliced thin
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped dry roasted peanuts (preferably Valencia peanuts)
Dressing
- 2 Tbsp. fish sauce
- juice of 1/2 lime
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, to taste
- 1-1/2 tsp. sugar, to taste
Instructions
- Cut the cucumber lengthwise, then again twice for each half so you end up with 6 long strips. Chop the cucumbers across the strips so you have small bite-sized pieces of cucumber.
- Place the cucumber, minced shallot, green onion, red pepper, and cilantro in a bowl.
- Combine the ingredients for the dressing.
- Pour about half of the dressing over the salad and toss. Taste to see if you need more - this dressing is strong, so add a little at a time!
- Sprinkle roasted peanuts over the top and serve.
