My friend Steve gave me this recipe for Spicy Thai Coconut Chicken Soup. It's quick to make, low in calories, and packed with flavor. Coconut milk tames the heat from the chile paste. You can adjust the heat to suit your taste.
1Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add mushrooms and the next 4 ingredients (through lemongrass); cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add chile paste; cook for 1 minute. Add Chicken Stock, coconut milk, fish sauce, and sugar; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 10 minutes. Add chicken to pan; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Discard lemongrass. Top with onions, cilantro, and juice.

Really delicious–I kicked up the chili sauce in mine.
