Thai Green Chicken Soup Recipe
This Thai green chicken soup recipe is deliciously refreshing and simple to make. It is packed full of delicious veggies making it a nice, healthy meal perfect as a starter or something light. I use chicken thighs in my Thai green soup because I find they have more flavour than breasts and are much better value however if meat is not your thing this recipe also works great with tofu!
