Classic chicken noodle soup is amped up with the addition of Madras curry powder, cilantro, fresh ginger and a serrano chile, resulting in bowlfuls of high-flavored Curried Chicken Soup.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 bone-in chicken breast half, skinned
1 pound bone-in chicken thighs, skinned
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrot
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
3 fresh parsley sprigs
3 fresh cilantro sprigs
1 (1/2-inch) piece peeled fresh ginger
1 serrano chile, pierced
2 bay leaves
3 tablespoons madras curry powder
3 cups unsalted chicken stock (such as swanson)

1 (14-ounce) can light coconut milk
1/4 cup plain 2% reduced-fat greek-style yogurt
2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon grated lime rind
1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add chicken, flesh side down. Cook 10 minutes; turn thighs after 5 minutes. Cool; shred. Discard bones.
2. Add onion and carrot to pan; sauté 10 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Place herb sprigs, ginger, serrano chile, and bay leaves on cheesecloth. Gather edges; tie securely. Add sachet to pan. Stir in curry powder; sauté 20 seconds.
