Spicy Keto Thai Chicken Soup

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use chicken breast instead of chicken thighs in this soup?

Absolutely! Chicken breast works well too. Just be careful not to overcook it, as it can dry out faster than thighs.

What can I substitute for cauliflower rice if I can't find it?

You can use regular rice if you're not strictly keto, or even shredded cabbage for a lighter option.

How spicy is this soup, and can I adjust the heat level?

The soup is pretty spicy with the Thai chilies and chili garlic sauce. If you want it milder, reduce the number of chilies or skip the red pepper flakes.

How should I store leftover soup?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave.

Is this soup suitable for meal prep?

Yes, this soup is great for meal prep! Just make sure to store the ingredients separately if you plan to assemble them later, especially the chicken and broth, to keep everything fresh.

Are Carrots Low Carb?

Yes, carrots are a little higher in carbohydrates than other keto-friendly vegetables. One large carrot has 5g net carbs. That sounds like a lot, but most recipes don’t have you eating one full carrot per serving. In this Thai chicken foil packet recipe, you’re using about 1/4 to 1/2 of a carrot – so you’re only adding 1.25 to 2.5 grams of carbs for the entire recipe. In moderation, carrots work just fine.
