Ingredients
  

  • 1 chicken breast organic if possible
  • 3 tbsp Coconut Amino
  • 1 inch piece of ginger chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 2 teasp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • 4 cups chicken stock no sugar added
  • 1 can full fat, unsweetened coconut milk Thai Kitchen
  • 2 teasp paprika
  • 1 Spaghetti Squash
  • Garnishes - limes, cilantro, sunflower seeds, boiled eggs, chopped onion, coconut amino optional

Instructions
 

  • Cook spaghetti squash - to cook the spaghetti squash quickly we put it in the microwave for 2 minutes, then slice in half and clean seeds out.  Place cut face down in a pan with an inch of boiling water and simmer for seven minutes.  Then scrape spaghetti squash with a fork making noodles.  Place bowl of “noodles” aside.
  • In medium bowl mix chopped chicken, coconut amino, turmeric, ginger and garlic.  Stir until combined.
  • Heat coconut oil over medium heat, in a heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven, cook onions until translucent and then add paprika.  Stir.
  • Turn the burner to medium high and add the chicken mixture. Stir so the chicken doesn’t stick.  Once, chicken is cooked stir in coconut milk and chicken stock.
  • Turn heat to low and simmer until you’re ready to serve.
  • To serve.  Place spaghetti squash “noodles” in the bottom of a bowl.  Ladle soup on top and add optional garnishes. I’ve also added cauliflower to the soup (while cooking the chicken) and it was delicious.
  • Top with optional garnishes and enjoy!

Notes

I love putting lots of toppings out so friends and family can add exactly what they'd like to the soup!
