Thai Curry Noodle Soup
This Thai Noodle Soup is so flavourful! The broth is creamy with a real kick of spice, and the soup is packed with shredded chicken and zucchini noodles. This is a great 30 minute one pot soup to enjoy on a cold day. This spicy Whole30 Thai Curry Noodle Soup is Paleo, Keto, Dairy Free, Grain Free, Gluten Free and Specific Carbohydrate Diet Legal.
This broth……oohhh this broth. Every spoonful is spicy, creamy, salty and refreshing and if I could drink this with a straw I would.
Although I enjoy any kind of soup when the weather gets cold, there is something about a spicy soup that I really love. I find them to be incredibly comforting with the spicy heat warming from the inside.
This Thai Noodle Soup is very adaptable depending on your desired level of spiciness. If you are a fan of heat then I recommend using hot curry paste and adding in extra chili peppers, while anyone who is more sensitive should stick to mild curry paste.
For protein I have included shredded chicken in the recipe, but that can easily be swapped for prawns or mushrooms if you are vegan.
Don’t rush the broth. Make sure that the flavours are exactly right before adding in the chicken, herbs and zucchini noodles. The noodles should only be cooked in the broth for a few minutes before serving so that they do not become mushy and fall apart.
The leftovers will last for a few days in the fridge, so this is a great soup to make in a big batch and then take for lunch over a few days. If you are freezing this Thai Noodle Soup, I would recommend leaving out the zucchini noodles and only adding them in fresh a few minutes before serving.

- 3 cloves garlic finely diced
- 2 tbsp ginger finely diced
- 3 tbsp red curry paste
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 can coconut milk (400ml)
- 1 tsp fish sauce (swap for coconut aminos/soy sauce to make vegan)
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 2 cups shredded chicken (approx 2 chicken breasts) (swap for mushrooms to make vegan)
- 2 zucchini spiralized (approx 5 cups zoodles)
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions
- 2 red Thai chilies, thinly sliced

Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot on medium heat. Add in the diced onion, garlic and ginger and sauté for 5 minutes until the onion has softened.

Delicious and came together so fast! I will definitely be adding this one to the rotation!
This recipe was delicious
Oh my gosh! Made this after a busy, cold and dreary day and it was so good! Came together so quick ! Love, love, love!
So Amazing! I used Thai rice noodles. Perfect comfort. Just what i needed.
This soup was amazing but next time I have to cut down the spice a little. This went over really well at my house. Thank you
This looks great. Is there a curry paste recipe that you use for SCD?
Absolutely delicious. Next time I make I’m going to mix 1/2 can of sweetened coconut milk with 1/2 can unsweetened.
I used unsweetened this time and really enjoyed the soup, however, I think if it had just a little of sweetness would be putting the cherry on the whip cream so to speak.
This is my favourite dinner for now on. Lots of spicy flavour and I love it. Perfect recipe for a bit colder days! 😊

This looks absolutely delicious!! Do you have a favorite brand of red curry you use for this recipe?
Just made this and followed the instructions but ended up with mostly white coconut milk broth. Doesn’t look like your picture at all.
Delicious! Will definitely be making this again!
Happy to hear that Donna!
Are the macros listed really per serving or for the whole recipe? Yikes! Seems high and will take up a good portion of my carb allotment.
Just made this. Very very good! Definitely will be on repeat!
Great to hear Sandra!
Made this tonight and it was amazing!! I’m a pretty beginner cook and it wasn’t hard at all!
Definitely making this again!
This soup is awesome!
Yea!!! Thanks for the comment Rachel!!
Love this recipe. I followed the directions exactly except for fresh basil. Couldn’t find it at my grocery store. Wish I could attach my picture.
Yea!! So happy to hear that it was a hit! Thanks for leaving a comment!
How many servings for this recipe?
this serves 3-4
Looks incredible! Any suggestions for a coconut milk replacement if you have a tree nut allergy?
Any kind of milk would work in this recipe!
This soup looks amazing, do you think this would freeze well? thanks in advance, Jackie
Yes it definitely would. I would suggest leaving the zucchini noodles out and only adding them once you have thawed the soup and are ready to eat, otherwise they will become mushy and fall apart.
